Erlang has kept me in business for the last ~25 years and it would never have lasted without the open source.
Big thanks to everybody involved.

Coincidentally, for those of you who's been around since Bjarne Däcker wrote his thesis, today there is another event worth celebrating.
The Hallandsås tunnel is finally officially opened! What crisis?
/OLA.

Hear, hear!

Erlang changed the way I think about programming, and indeed, transformed my career by leading me out of C/C++ caves.
Thank you Ericsson for having a courage to release it to a general public, whilst still maintaining a meaningful level of control.
Not everyone may agree with this, but, for what is worth, I think this has to be a sign of an exceptional company.
