Agreed, Tilly. A hello or nice comment is certainly NOT a
waste of time at all. We may work on machines, but we are
still human, and a kind word can go a long way!

Ok, tilly there you got and get a point :-)
But how would you feel, when getting 20 mails per day like these?
Have a nice day
All decision is left to your taste

Boy that would make me feel good!
See, most of the messages about a module are either bug
reports (extremely rare ;--), improvement requests, help
needed or plain "I have no idea how to do this so I'll
just grab a somehow related module and bug the author to
Death until they write the code for me" (hopefully rare!).
So getting "thank you" and also a little description of
what users do with a module makes you feel that after
all it is not too bugged, lacking in features, that the
documentation does not suck and that after all some of
those users know what they are doing ;--)
Seriously a module is a tool and at least for me there is
no better reason to write a tool than to see people use
it to write stuff I can't even think of.
Plus having an idea of how people use it gives me a chance
to figure out which features should be absolutely,
completely, irrevocably stable and which ones
can still evolve without breaking too much code around
(provided there is a real strong reason to do so of course).
Of course I guess Lincoln Stein might have a different
view...
