Last night, Brian, Sig, and I attended the NZ Open Source Awards.  We were finalists in two categories: Open Source Use in Business and Open Source Software Project.  State Services Commission was also a finalist for the National Broadband Map, which we developed.

We were delighted to win the award for best Open Source Software Project!

The past year has seen tremendous growth in the SilverStripe project: the product has improved, the community in strengthening, and SilverStripe is being used to power more and more high profile websites.  It was great to have this recognised at the NZ Open Source Awards.

No open-source project can get anywhere without the a strong user and developer community.  So, I would like to say a big thanks to everyone who has been involved with SilverStripe.   Together, we have made this happen.

This award is for all of us!
