> Hi!  We have just finished tallying the nominations for our fourth
> annual SourceForge.net Community Choice Awards, and I have some news
> for you.
>
> Your project, Text Encoding Initiative, has been selected as an
> alternate finalist in Best Project for Academia.
>
> Being an alternate means that you didn't have enough nominations to be
> a finalist, but you were really, *really* close.  If one of our
> finalists declines to accept their nomination, we may need you to fill
> in!
>
> This year, we want our voters to know as much as possible about your
> project...but we need your help!  Please respond to this email with  
> the
> following info before June 17th:
>
> 1. Complete this sentence in about 140 characters: "Our project is
> [-foo-]."  For example, "Our project is a tool that helps you wash  
> your
> car."
>
> 2. Complete this sentence, also in about 140 characters: "We should  
> win
> because [-bar-]."  For example, "We should win because we have a  
> strong
> community and we solve a universal problem."
>
> 3. Please provide a logo (or screenshot, if you'd prefer) for your
> project.  It should be at least 640x480, but we'll also be showing it
> as a thumbnail.
>
> 4. This one is optional, but it could make a big difference.  We'd  
> like
> to show our voters a video that introduces them to the core members of
> your team.  Send along the URL (on YouTube) and we'll make sure they
> see it!
>
> 5. In some cases, I'm mailing several people in your community because
> I don't know who the right person is.  If you're not the right person
> for me to be dealing with, please let me know. I certainly don't want
> to be irritating.

> 6. Our finalists are usually pretty interesting people.  Are you
> willing to be contacted by our public relations team about interviews
> with the press?
>
> Thanks in advance for your responses.  It's very important that we
> receive this information by June 17th - we'll be kicking off the final
> vote on the 22nd, and we have to have time to put everything together.
>
> Congratulations on having such a dedicated community, and best of  
> luck!
