[meta] Congratulations to Kev

Congratulations are in order - Kev has made it to the final of the Exceptional DBA Awards, and deservedly so.

If Kev has helped you out (which, given his seeming addiction to tidying up posts and tags, means pretty much everyone) then please do cast your vote for him using the link above.

Well done sir!

Bump - just to remind anyone that hasn't voted yet!

Thanks Matt!

I had to edit that post of yours, there was a typo!!

It's an absolute honour to have made the final, but if it wasn't for you guys here, and the wider community, I wouldn't have made it!

Just wanted to finalise this now. Tracy Hamlin has won the title, and it is well deserved. It was a great honour to have made the final, to be ranked amongst some of the big names in the SQL community and I'd like to thank you all for your support. Follow the link from the original post and you can see more info about Tracy, and her interview on SSC. Right, what's next.......
