Linux Journal Awards Winners

Yay!

I'm glad that lwn.net got listed as best website. The LJ editors have taste.

I guarantee you that slashdot.org will win the best website in the reader's choice awards. Simply because it always does. And the reason it always does is because many more people go to slashdot. I've always thought it insane, though, because there's no question that so far as *Linux* news goes, LWN.net offers far more than does Slashdot. Most of the timely linux-specific blurbs that show up on Slashdot also show upon lwn.net daily, and frequently on lwn first. And there's of course LWN weekly, where somebody intellgent actually sat down to write something coherent. Slashdot really holds no candle to LWN.net so far as quality of linux-specific website news goes, but it's got a higher profile, so there you go.

Items on their list that look strange to me are Gaim, Webmin, Netfilter/iptables, and Perl. Did I miss something special that these projects achieved during the last year? Personally, I would rather give their awards respectively to PSI, APT, SSH, and Ruby. Flamewar, anyone? ;-)
