Eligibility: Who Can Apply |
The prize welcomes applications from — and nominations of — single individuals.
Software development, we recognize, often unfolds as a collaborative process, and we value this collaborative spirit. Any piece of software that goes through an open source process will, of course, owe its success to multiple people.
