I think the award should be 'software producer of the year' and take into account the following processes

Why should Web Developers who cannot contribute even 500 bob for the Skunkworks Server expect donations for free marketing of their skills? To know who on this Skunkworks list puts their money where their comments, queries or adverts are see: http://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=0AopdHkqSqKL-dHlQVTMxU1VBdU1BSWJxdy1f...
I was just looking at these contributions and they are very gender insensitive. Where are the skunkettes? I only see very few.
