Nominations Open -- Tides Antonio Pizzigati Prize for Software in the Public Interest

[uransoftwareservices uran]

Nominations have now opened for the sixth annual Tides Community
Antonio Pizzigati Prize for Software in the Public Interest, the
nation’s highest honor for software developers working with nonprofits
to help advance innovative social change. Tides is now accepting
nominations for this year’s $10,000 prize through October 31. The 2012
winner will be announced in April at the Nonprofit Technology Network
annual conference in San Francisco. The ideals of public interest
computing—central to this competition--evolved inside the open source
movement to promote collaboration and sharing. A contrast to the idea
that progress demands cutthroat competition between individuals
striving to get ever richer, these developers instead model the notion
that we all benefit from collaboration. This commitment to
collaboration and sharing, in the continuing struggle for a better
world, is at the heart of the Pizzigati Prize.
