I realize that I've been remiss in announcing this. My apologies.

I have been awarded the 2008 Pizzigati Prize for Public Interest Computing for GNU Mailman.

http://www.pizzigatiprize.org/

I am deeply honored to win this prize because I believe very strongly in Mailman's role in helping people communicate and organize. I want to thank all of you who have supported me and Mailman over the years, and I want to let you know that I am as excited as ever about where Mailman is going. One of the most satisfying aspects of this project for me has been meeting you, the users, developers and contributors to Mailman, both online and face-to-face.

I'm looking forward to meeting the Pizzigati family and having some time to spend with them learning about Anthony's remarkable life, sadly cut too short.

So again, thank you all and I'm looking forward to the next 10 years of GNU Mailman!

Cheers,

Congratulations Barry! Definitely well deserved!

I for one can testify how important mailman has become to the communication needs of our clients. Many of our clients come from the medical community and they have found out how valuable mailman is for their collaboration efforts, including breast cancer research.

Congratulations Barry ! Our sincere thanks to Mailman developers and community. We are using Mailman for our Secure Email List Service (SELS) project. (http://sels.ncsa.uiuc.edu/) and now also providing it as a service to user communities. Meenal (on behalf of the SELS team)

Congratulations Barry. Well deserved. Mailman is a great product and
has served my needs very well.

I'm running Mailman 2.1.9cp2 on a virtual server and have serving 34
mailing lists for a professional organization. Most are small,
announce lists with little traffic but they all run well, with few
problems.

My thanks to you and the rest of the team for providing such a great
product.
