For those of you who don't get Apache Week you may be interested in the Appaloosa Awards. Be sure to vote for Doug for the Technical Contribution Award :-) -----FW: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>----- Appaloosa Awards reward Apache innovation The Appaloosa Awards are this year's new awards to acknowledge the efforts of those who the Apache community believe to have had the most significant influences on the Apache Software Foundation's open-source projects. O'Reilly's "White Camel" awards last year went a long way to praising the Perl community's "unsung heroes" - those who devoted extraordinary creativity, energy, and time to the non-technical work that supports Perl's user community. That's exactly the ethos the ASF are trying to capture with this new Apache-specific version of the contest. The nominations are complete and voting is now open in one of the following categories: * Vision Award - best ideas of how to move Apache forward * Evangelism Award - promoting Apache awareness or acceptance * Technical Contribution Award - New ideas, bug fixes, new modules July's O'Reilly Open Source conference plays host to the awards ceremony on 18th July in Monterey, California and Apache Week will be there to cover the ceremony and the conference. The web-based [1]voting system for the awards is being hosted by Apache Week and is open until midnight 22nd June (GMT). Vote now! 1. http://www.apacheweek.com/features/appies2000/ --------------End of forwarded message------------------------- -- Jason Bodnar + [EMAIL PROTECTED] + Team Linux To alcohol!
