Just one comment:

"design team" = Jamie Cameron

Webmin and Usermin is a one man operation.  Ok, there are patches now 
and then from other folks, and every once in a while a whole module 
slides in from someone else...I think Postfix and QMail are examples of 
that.  And credit is also due to the translators.  But we owe thanks for 
the design and vast majority of the implementation to Jamie.

Just being a picker of nits.  ;-)
