Appaloosa Awards

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: <E1...@whippet.int.c2.net>-----

                   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!
