Congratulations!  All I can say is that Lua definitely changed the way
how we write software and our commercial software www.arcapos.com would
not be where it is today without Lua.  All in all Lua serves around 2
million people per year with that software (of course without them
knowing that ;)

So keep the good work up (which, imo, boils down to not change Lua to
much from release to release, but keep it stable).
