All,
The GlassFish Awards Program (GAP) is intended to encourage and reward
innovation in the GlassFish Community. The program's rules (here
<
http://glassfish.org/GAP>) are quite loose and many types of projects
will qualify. There are US$ 175K available, for both projects and bug
submissions; check Previous Posts
<
http://blogs.sun.com/theaquarium/tags/gap> for additional commentary.
Some notes on the program:

. Submissions are to be sent to Gap-Submissions at GF (Archive
<
https://glassfish.dev.java.net/servlets/SummarizeList?listName=gap-submissions>,
mailto <mailto:gap-submissions_at_glassfish.dev.java.net>).
. All projects in the GlassFish community at-large are eligible.
. Applicants are individuals, we don't care were they work
<

. Whether you need to sign the SCA
<
http://www.sun.com/software/opensource/contributor_agreement.jsp>
depends on the requirements of your project.
. Docs, Portals, Workshops, etc, are all eligible. If in doubt, Ask Us
<mailto:gap-submissions_at_glassfish.dev.java.net>.
. Don't wait until the last minute; Submit it Now!
<mailto:gap-submissions_at_glassfish.dev.java.net>
. A good approach is to submit now what you have, then Send an Update!
<mailto:gap-submissions_at_glassfish.dev.java.net>
We have up to 20 prizes for projects and many more for bug submissions
but we have received very few submissions so far. I suspect many are
waiting for the deadline, but we would much rather you submit now first
and then resubmit. Don't leave money on the table!
*Note!* We had a configuration problem with the submission alias and it
is possible that some submissions may not have been recorded properly.
If you submitted, please check the alias archive
<
https://glassfish.dev.java.net/servlets/SummarizeList?listName=gap-submissions>,
and resubmit if necessary.
