Do you by any chance also participate in the open source revolution? Do you desire validation of the sophistication of your solution based on open source components or the open source software under development? Are you at a loss as to how to present your work, the company/organisation to your colleagues, the business IT sphere and the open source community? We have created the IBLOC Innovative Project Award for you within the scope of the IBLOC 2007 Conference. We invite all companies/organisations and individuals who wish to vie for the Award to apply. We will be bestowing two awards: the IBLOC Innovative Project Award according to the selection of a three-member jury and the public award, which is going to be awarded by visitors to the www.ibloc.si website.
The following projects and products will be eligible to vie for the award:
- IT solutions, information systems and external websites, which are entirely or partly based on open source software;
- software packs or products sold under one of the open source licences (certificates of the Open Source Initiative – OSI organisation).
Projects/products may be registered to compete for the award by:
- companies/organisations or natural persons or their groups that were the majority holder of the implementation of the entered solution;
- companies/organisations or natural persons or their groups with a majority or leading share in the development of a certain product/program under one of the open source licences. The criteria
- Technical sophistication of the solution
- Relevance of the used technologies and end use
- Openness and the possibility of cooperation of the open source community in the design of the final solution or software
- Practicality, feasibility and the extent of use of the entered open source solution or software Have you already decided on entering your project? Do you wish to share your findings with others or are you afraid that someone else might see your software code close up and maybe even upgrade it so that it benefits you as well? Are you thinking about offering one of your projects under one of the open source licences? By registering for the IBLOC Innovative Project Award, you will make your solutions known to the wider IT public – participants of the IBLOC Conference as well as visitors to the www.ibloc.si website, who can select you as the winner during the two-month voting period. The first place taker according to the selection of the jury of experts and the project getting the most votes from the visitors will get free admission to the Conference and an opportunity to make a 20-minute presentation!
