Great. A Block! I also sent some BTC using sendmany.

Thank you for the 0.39755 mBTC!

Although the block only has 2 transactions I suppose that's better than the previous block, which only had 1 (the coinbase one)

I just joined P2Pool on 4/5/15 and am pretty pleased.

How do we determine the address corresponding to the person in the P2Pool who actually mined this block so we can thank him/her directly?

No, it had lots of transactions.
If it only had 1 transaction it would be pretty much as bad for bitcoin as the last one.

As for thanking them ... well it is completely random finding a block ... and they get thanked by getting a block finder reward by getting a small % of everyone's expected payout from everyone mining on p2pool

You looking at something different than I am? Last block found by p2pool was 352654, and that block had only 2 transactions, of which the generation transaction was one... so it's almost just as bad as the last one

I was (incorrectly) looking at that one linked.
I didn't actually check the list of p2pool blocks.
Though, if p2pool starts regularly making tiny blocks, it would lose it's whole "Good for Bitcoin" stand and be worse for bitcoin than the few good pools that don't do that
