Sourceforge.net 2008 Community Choice Awards

SourceForge.net is proud to present our 2008 Community Choice Awards. This is the third year of our awards program, and we think it's going to be the best yet. Here's why:

Open, Perhaps?

The big news about our awards program this year is that we've decided to allow nominations for any open source project, not just those on SourceForge.net. We know that the success of open source is bigger than one repository can contain.

Rewarding Communities

Some awards are presented to individuals, but that's not what this program is about. Everyone knows what a few geeks in a garage can accomplish, but support from a community of scale is what really makes open source a force to be reckoned with.

The Choice Is Yours

We don't pick winners. Heck, we barely even set any rules. Sure, we could just decide who we think is the best, but what fun is that? Wouldn't you rather speak for yourself? We think so too.

How can I participate?

 

Glad you asked! You can nominate your favorite open source project today! Nominations are open. So enjoy, it's good for you!

Now is also a good time to start planning your trip to OSCON 2008 in Portland on July 21-25, where we'll be hosting our awards party on July 24th at the Jupiter Hotel.

In the meantime, check out our Program Information page to learn more about how this is all going to happen, or look at the winners of last year's program.
