I don't think that there is any need for that. I myself am always glad
when I am able to help someone. I am a Debian user for three or four
years now and I know that I would've never got that far without other
people's voluntary help. So I think the best way to express gratitude is
to do the same to other newbies.
If you really, really appreciate how someone helped you out you could
still contact him privately and ask for a favor you could do to him/her.
Many people also have public wishlists no amazon and the like.
BTW, I was very happy to receive your last mail. :-)
