Congrats, Adbel! Well, congrats to us all :-) Concerning the price, I would be surprised to be nominated in the 'innovation' trophy (since innovation in current newspeak really means ``something vaguely new but sold by a company''). So it has to be IMO ``The best foreign project in Open Source Software carried out''.
