Welcome
Voting has closed! Come see who the winners are in person when we announce during OSCON. We're throwing a party at the Jupiter Hotel to celebrate, and you're invited! Thursday, July 24th from 6:00pm through 9:00pm. Buses will be running all night long from the convention center.
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, so nominate your favorite Codeplex projects, Google Code projects, ASF projects, and everything else right now!
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?
We've closed the voting process, and the winners have been chosen!
Come to OSCON 2008 in Portland on July 21-25, where we'll be hosting our awards party on July 24th at the Jupiter Hotel. Doors open at 6pm, and there will be buses running between the party and the convention center starting at 5:30.
In the meantime, check out our Program Information page to learn more about how this all happened, or look at the winners of last year's program.
