Cheng Wang wrote in saying  "Thanks to Drew Ruderman and David Naylor who really stepped up and answered TONS of questions during the 3.6 launch"
Anthony Hughes (:ashughes) wrote in "I'd like to nominate adifire as a Friend of the Tree this week.  She showed up to QAs AMO testday not knowing much about testing; only that she wanted to help.  By the end of the day she had contributed many test results and asked many questions resulting in a couple of bug reports being filed against AMO.  She seemed eager to learn and excited to return for future testdays."
