This is absolutely wonderful news! Thanks so much for your efforts
Gabriel and Janos; I think the web gallery is going to be a hugely
popular part of the Ubuntu Accomplishments system. It will be awesome
when people can showcase their accomplishments, share them on social
media networks, embed them on their websites and all the other
potential opportunities that are possible.

Thanks for your fantastic work!
