I was contacted over the weekend by the organiser of a Paris
based free software contest, who wanted to know whether I knew
anyone in the GIMP project who was prepared to be a jury member
for the competition.
What exactly is the contest about? Coding flor a new project? Fixing
bugs on existing projects? Or just using some free software at all?
It's a contest for rwarding individual efforts in free software.
Here's a site in French describing the competition:
http://www.toolinux.com/news/communaute/trophees_du_libre_2e_edition_ar5784.html
The website is in French, but the contest is intended to be
international - so far, confirmed jurors include one of the main
PHP and one of the main MySQL programmers.
This page: http://www.sil-cetril.org/trophees/
has a description of the contest: Two types of projects can be
presented: Emerging projects which need a maturing phase, but
also more established projects.
The goal is simply to encourage free software development, as far
as I can tell.
Cheers,
Dave.
