Come on, it's an award, they pick individuals. I think Derick and Jani deserved that award with good margin, because the type of work they do often has limited reward compared to the amount of energy they put into it. If any of us did the work we do for the money (in commerical), the recognition, or the fame (as such) then PHP, Open Source and the whole bleeding edge programming community wouldnt be where it is now. Every developer who has taken up the text editor and coded for the sheere hell of expanding the current realm of known computing (eg: expanding PHP's functionality, contributing to projects such as FreeBSD etc) deserves recognition like this. The prize comes from self gratification more than anything - and although decoration may be nice this IS an award for everyone who has worked on the PHP project. Although its Derick and Jani's names on the trophy, we all know that its a group effort - hence the name PHP _Group_. If anything we should all be proud of what we all have accomplished. There'll be a chance for everyone ;-) Just my 2c if that makes any sense :P -- Dan Hardiker [[EMAIL PROTECTED]] ADAM Software Systems Engineer First Creative Ltd -- PHP Development Mailing List http://www.php.net/ To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Daniel: Thanks for the vote of confidence! I think Derick and Jani deserved that award with good margin, because the type of work they do often has limited reward compared to the amount of energy they put into it. Derick and Jani seem to be by far the most active PHP developers, so much so that I have often thought of them. It's a shame that I don't have enough time to put into PHP so that they don't have to work quite so hard! Err, do they actually get anything tangible with this award? Like a plaque, statue, software or cash?? --Wez. -- PHP Development Mailing List http://www.php.net/ To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
