While much of the world is about to celebrate time off with family and friends with snow falling outside, for us in New Zealand and Australia the festive season is the height of summer, the time for beach parties and barbecues in our back yards. We'd like to thank all our customers, supporters, and our open source community for helping to make 2011 a wonderful year for us.

Our office shuts down today and reopens fully on Monday 9 January. We look forward to working with you to do awesome stuff on the web in 2012, through great work and with the exciting release of SilverStripe 3.0.
