More importantly, though, I think the mailing list and support I got is what made it worthwhile  — I remember one instance, back in 2006, when I had a heck of a problem with a database migration and kept getting all sorts of errors … I think it had to do with PHP versions (or something) but I was really new at it and after going back and forth about it on the mailing list (see archive), Darrel took time to work me through the problem one-on-one in real-time troubleshooting it over instant messenger (see conclusion).

I couldn’t have done it without the help I got here.  So, I would just say that yes, the plugin is great but it’s the people that make it rock and roll.
