I observed that my nomination disappeared. I assume that the selection is happening currently, isn't it? You mentioned the possible committees for two categories but I don't know the remaining ones. Of course, some selection has to happen because some nominations are just invalid (e.g. WeeklyOSM was nominated but was awarded last year). But I think that the selection should happen by the community and not by committees in the dark. If they sort out nominees, it would improve transparency very much and reduce (my) anger if they gave a short explanation. I don't expect a long essay, a simple "was awarded last year" or a sentence which explains why he/she does not fit into the category is good enough.
