FSF: Free Software Award nominations sought
The Free Software Foundation (FSF) has announced
that nominations are open, until October 28, for the Free Software Awards. Winners will
be announced at the annual LibrePlanet conference. "You
might know of a contributor or organization who has done significant and
user-empowering work on free software. We invite you to take a moment to
show them (and tell us) that you care, by nominating them for an award in
one of three categories: the Award for the Advancement of
Free Software, the Award
for Projects of Social Benefit, or the Award for Outstanding New
Free Software Contributor. Don't assume that someone else will nominate
them -- too often, everyone assuming someone else will express the
appreciation means that it never happens. As taking initiative and speaking
up for the community are important parts of free software, why not take the
time yourself to make sure your voice is heard?
