| Since of lack of time I haven't had the proper time to include all the proper information within the poll, such as author names and companies. But, this will ofcourse be posted. Some of the applications might be rather unknown for some and very know for others, so if you have any good url with more information to any of the applications; please post it here so we can update the poll with the info! Thanks in advance! |

| In the Annual Award nominee list you have CDRecord/2 Please notice that CDRecord/2 is actively developed by Nick Lepehin <nickk@nm.ru> as a part of his famous CDRTools/2 port http://hobbes.nmsu.edu/cgi-bin/h-search?key=cdrtools So please add Nick Lepehin to the nominee list as well. Mention Chris Wohlgemuth alone is VERY UNFAIR. |

| I agree with Inept, Nick Lepehin's version of cdrecord/2 is so much better than Chris W's, and Nick is the only one actively maintaining the package. |

| Hi, as much as I like your awards ceremony, I have to say that I find it highly questionable that you list the WarpVision project which violates the (L)GPL with their WVGUI in your nominees list! Peter. P.S.: For ZeroToaster::MTA should you not list Bernd Hohmann as the author?! |

I didn't say that WV is bad, in fact I very much liked to use it until I discovered that they do not honor the licences of the software they built it on. |

| Please name GPL project, which is a part of WV... WV based on the FFMPEG project, which is covered by LGPL. |

| I did not choose the nominations. These were submitted by people who sent them in. The lists of 5 per group were taken from those that were nominated the most. There was a limit of 5 per group. If you dislike any nomination, vote for the one you do.

From your own webpage: "WarpVision uses some code from many different GPL projects, including mplayer (libmpdemux, mp3lib), ffmpeg (extremely fast DivX/MPEG), xine (some stuff for gamma correction), liba52, mpeg2dec (libmpeg2) and Andy Zabolotny's libraries (libdart and libdive)." |

| dear troll, .. I mean, pw: the wvcli sources (wvgui is this + pm controls) are available via cvs (see http://os2.kiev.ua). |

| Yes dink, I know that _you_ do not care for licenses... I don't see any mention of the CVS on the webpage, but I knew this and even have successfully compiled WVCLI from those sources. But WVGUI is still illegitimately using GPL material by not opening the source. And if WVGUI only contains LGPL sources they still have to distribute the diffs to those sources and the LGPL license as a minimum _with WVGUI_. |

Vlad, I do not mean that you do not deserve to win because your programs are bad. You have done great work with your own programming (porting and combining the various open source projects) as far as I can assess that! But I guess we should take further discussion about your licenses somewhere else, to http://www.os2world.com/cgi-bin/ultraboard/UltraBoard.cgi?action=Headlines&BID=20&SID=57252 or comp.os.os2.apps perhaps? |

I've only listed the companies within that category. That that would be enought, but we can get all the names of the coder/authors that would be fine with me to update the poll with full name/s. /Kim |
