> The Open Source Geospatial Foundation would like to open
> nominations for the 2012 Sol Katz Award for Geospatial Free
> and Open Source Software.
> 
> The Sol Katz Award for Geospatial Free and Open Source
> Software (GFOSS) will be given to individuals who have
> demonstrated leadership in the GFOSS community. Recipients
> of the award will have contributed significantly through their
> activities to advance open source ideals in the geospatial realm.
> 
> Sol Katz was an early pioneer of GFOSS and left behind a large
> body of work in the form of applications, format specifications,
> and utilities while at the U.S. Bureau of Land Management. This
> early GFOSS archive provided both source code and applications
> freely available to the community. Sol was also a frequent
> contributor to many geospatial list servers, providing much
> guidance to the geospatial community at large.
> 
> Sol unfortunately passed away in 1999 from Non-Hodgkin's
> Lymphoma, but his legacy lives on in the open source world.
> Those interested in making a donation to the American Cancer
> Society, as per Sol's family's request, can do so at:
> 
>    https://www.cancer.org/involved/donate/donateonlinenow/index
> 
> Nominations for the Sol Katz Award should be sent to
> SolKatzAward at osgeo.org with a description of the reasons for
> this nomination. Nominations will be accepted until 23:59 UTC
> on September 28th.  A recipient will be decided from the
> nomination list by an OSGeo designated selection committee.
> The winner of the Sol Katz Award for Geospatial Free and Open
> Source Software will be announced in early October. The hope is
> that the award will both acknowledge the work of community
> members, and pay tribute to one of its founders, for years to
> come.  It should be noted that past awardees and selection
> committee members are not eligible.
