    Congrats to all.

    It's great to see that the quality of projects & people over the years in FOSS healthcare are making it more and more difficult to select winners.

      Sure check this out. Basically the call for nominations comes out around July. 300 words or so per nominee. Panel of judges is usually past Freedom award recipients. Judging is totally un-scientific and subjective although we try not to be. -- IV
