Submitted: Sun $1M open source innovation award challenge
Wednesday February 27, @04:16AM
LarsWestergren writes "Sun has created an innovation award program with one million dollars divided between six open-source projects -- Open Office, OpenJDK, Open Solaris, Open Sparc, Netbeans and Glassfish. Individuals or teams submit proposals to the projects and and can be awarded up to $175000 if the proposal is accepted and they deliver the code."
********
This submission got modded to oblivion quickly in the Firehose queue. Really makes me wonder - do Slashdotters really find this so uninteresting? Or do people here hate Sun so much? Or is there a shadowy cabal from rival companies that doesn't want the truth to get out??!
