Thank You Award
About
The purpose of Haikuware's 'Thank You Award' (TYA), is to show our appreciation towards Haiku developers, documentation writers, community members, or basically anyone that contributes to Haiku to further its cause. The goal of this project is one of recognition (bragging rights!?) and acknowledgement from the community for what most developers at Haiku do in their spare time - and for free!
How it Works
Administration, choosing candidates, comments and suggestions concerning this project are handled on Freelists. We also accept nominations for Thank You Award candidates in advance of each poll in the form of comments on our website. A public poll based on the selection of candidates will then be held, and the winner will be awarded the prize.
A Haiku Golf Shirt will be awarded every two months (pending funds), making six awards per year. Any money collected above $40 every two months will be saved in the account for subsequent awards. If the balance hasn't reached $40, the award will be skipped until the next round.
Fifteen percent of failed bounties will be moved to the Thank You Award. Recipients of the award will be excluded from future awards.
