It's actually spelled "the Plonies" (as in "the Grammies"), and yes — we have been discussing this for years. Having the official name be "the Plone Awards" is probably a good idea, though. Then we can refer to it as the Plonies inside the community. It just lacks a person to own it — should be a simple matter of identifying some categories, set up a timely survey with some good candidates (as well as a freeform option) before the conference, and keep it a secret until it's announced at the conference. Oh, and an awesome Plonies statuette for the winners, of course. ;) Personally, my opinion is that it shouldn't be a simple popularity contest, but rather be used as the basis from where the winners are selected by the judges. This would make it more like the Oscars/Grammies too — and make it possible to put the spotlight on people/project that get less attention that they perhaps should have. :) -- Alexander Limi · http://limi.net ___ Evangelism mailing list Evangelism@lists.plone.org http://lists.plone.org/mailman/listinfo/evangelism
