Harald Welte and Groklaw win FSF's 2007 Free Software Awards

By Pamela Jones et al.

We won the Free Software Foundation's 2007 award, the Award for Projects of Social Benefit. So this is recognition of us as a group. Harald Welte won the Award for the Advancement of Free Software. The press release says this about our work at Groklaw:

The Award for Projects of Social Benefit is presented annually to a free software project that intentionally and significantly benefits society. Since its start in 2003, Groklaw has evolved into an invaluable source of legal and technical information for software developers, lawyers, law professors, and historians.

We've worked so hard together for so long, it is wonderful to have our group work recognized. Dan Bricklin was kind enough to attend for us and convey our thank you, and there's a picture of him with the award in the press release. FSF's art designer designed our plaque so charmingly. You can see a picture of it in the press release, but Dan sent me a picture he took, too. Would you like to see it?
