The White Camel Awards are sponsored by Perl Mongers. Nobody but Perl Mongers gets to see the nomination information. Perl Mongers will select the award recipients.
The idea is to recognize persons who have made significant, non-technical contributions to the Perl community. I like giving stuff away, and that's why I created these awards and organized the necessary people to raise funds and so on. That's it.
If sourceXchange wanted to find developers, this would be a really stupid and expensive way to go about it. The people being nominated aren't exactly unknowns, after all. :)
