Vote:Most Deserving of $2000

Posted by ryuzaki0 on Tuesday January 18, 2000 @02:57AM from the you-gotta-be-kidding dept.

In all honesty I just thought it would be cool to have a category that had no real point except to give some money away. Of course the most popular entry in this category was 'Me'. Apparently everyone seems to think that they were the most deserving... but a few wise guys took it seriously and nominated Alan Cox, Debian, Linus Torvalds and LiViD. Who deserves $2k?.

Thank you for nominating us! We have a great team of people on the project and we are working hard to bring better video to Linux. Check us out at the LinuxWorld Expo. We have a booth in the .org pavillion.
Oily Penguins? by CrAzYaL · 2000-01-18 02:23 · Score: 1

What about the oily Penguins?
A few weeks ago, we had a story about Gooey penguins in Australia. At the time there was support for donating $2000 for thier recovery fund.
It is very disappointing to see how quickly we forget about such noble causes as simple environmental relief.
I mean, None of the people listed really NEED $2000, do they?
