Linux New Media Awards 2011: Choose Your Favorite Linux Desktop Application!
The Linux New Media Awards are back! Organized by the publisher of Linux Magazine and Linux Pro Magazine, these awards recognize projects, organisations, people, and companies for their outstanding contributions to the Linux/FLOSS community.
The Readers Choice Award was held for the first time in 2010, and Ubuntu was awarded the best Linux distribution. This year, the Award focuses on the best Linux desktop application, and everyone is invited to participate. Submit your vote through our webform here.
The winners in all other categories will be chosen by a jury of about 300 experts from the Linux/FLOSS sector. The editorial staff of Linux New Media's magazines Linux Magazine, ADMIN, and Ubuntu User, as well as open source influencers Mark Shuttleworth, Linus Torvalds, and Alan Cox will cast their votes. Winners from previous years include Debian/GNU Linux, Mozilla, OpenStreetMap, and Linux kernel programmers.
The winners of the Linux New Media Awards 2011 will be announced in Hannover, Germany, in Hall 2 at the CeBIT Open Source event on March 8, 2012, and broadcast via live streaming.
