If any of us did the work we do for the money (in commerical), the recognition, or the "fame" (as such) then PHP, Open Source and the whole bleeding edge programming community wouldnt be where it is now. Every developer who has taken up the text editor and coded for the sheere hell of expanding the current realm of known computing (eg: expanding PHP's functionality, contributing to projects such as FreeBSD etc) deserves recognition like this. The prize comes from self gratification more than anything - and although decoration may be nice this IS an award for everyone who has worked on the PHP project. Although its Derick and Jani's names on the trophy, we all know that its a group effort - hence the name PHP _Group_. If anything we should all be proud of what we all have accomplished. > There'll be a chance for everyone ;-) Just my 2c if that makes any sense :P -- Dan Hardiker [[EMAIL PROTECTED]] ADAM Software & Systems Engineer First Creative Ltd -- PHP Development Mailing List <http://www.php.net/> To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
