I was trying to think what meaningful categories would focus on Open Gaming vs. general gaming and came up with the following as a starting point. Best Open Mechanic/Rule (Sovereign Stone magic system, etc.) Best Open Crunchy Bit (spell, item, feat, etc.) Best Open System or Supplement (d20 SRD, Dominion, Action!, etc.) Best Open Source Book (Creature Coll., Sovereign Stone, Dragonstar) Best Open Gaming Software (is there any legal open gaming software?) Best Achievement in Open Gaming (from the finalists for the above) Special Achievement in Open Gaming (perhaps not related to a specific product) Lifetime Achievement in Open Gaming ;) The following feel more like game awards or design awards... Best Open Adventure Best Open Setting I'll suggest that open nominations are reviewed by a committee of industry professionals which generate the list of finalists. The finalists are voted on by consumers and the best achievement and special acheivement awards are decided by the committee. A combination of populist and industry recognition.
