2008 Open Source CMS Award Details Announced
Tuesday, June 10, 2008 | News | Content ManagementPackt is pleased to announce details of the upcoming 2008 Open Source Content Management System Award. Beginning with the Nominations stage on July 14, the 2008 Award will run for a total of 15 weeks, with the winners being announced during the last week of October.  During 2007, five Open Source Content Management Systems won
categories, with Drupal winning the overall Award. The format for the 2008
Award remains the same, with the addition of a new category, which will replace
Open Source Social Networking. This exciting new category is for MVPs at Open
Source Content Management Systems. This will recognise the contributions to
projects made by individuals that often go unnoticed. For the large majority of
Open Source projects, it is the tireless contributions from enthusiastic
individuals that enable its growth and adoption and these are the people that
Packt feels is necessary to identify. MVPs will be nominated by their projects and
will be announced during the final week, with features on the MVPs for the
Content Management Systems that won their categories.
The full timetable is as follows: July 14 Nominations open August 25 Nominations close September 1 Finalists announced and voting opens October 20 Voting ends October 27 Open Source Content Management System MVPs announced October 28 Best Other Open Source CMS announced October 29 Best PHP Open Source CMS announced October 30 Most Promising Open Source CMS announced October 31 Overall Winner announced For full details of the 2008 Open Source CMS Award, please visit the website: www.PacktPub.com/Award The prize fund for the Award remains at a total of $20,000.
