[Popfile-announce] POPFile wins Productivity Award at 2005 Jolt Awards

[John Graham-C. <jg...@jg...>]

Folks,

I realize that this list is used normally for just POPFile release 
announcements (and the occasional security advisory), but I'm making an 
exception to let you know that POPFile won a Productivity Award last 
night at the 2005 Jolt Awards at SD Expo in Santa Clara, CA.

I know that everyone who works on POPFile is delighted to see the 
program get public recognition and I want to take this opportunity to 
thank everyone who has contributed to POPFile as a patcher, developer, 
documentation writer, Wiki updater, translator, technical supporter and 
supporter.

Long-time POPFile developer, Sam Schinke was present at the awards last 
night and has written about the experience on his blog.  You can read 
about that here: http://scrappy-do.blogspot.com/ or look for the June 
2005 Software Development Magazine where we should get a mention.

Many of you may be wondering where v0.23.0 is; it's coming... slowly. 
v0.23.0 represents a major change in POPFile with the addition of 
support for multiple, distinct users.  Much of the work has already been 
done and can be found in CVS, but there's more to do.  I'm not going to 
promise a release date, but when v0.23.0 it'll feature an improved UI 
(Joseph Connors is leading that) and multiple user handling which should 
improve POPFile in SOHO environments.

John.
