Doug, don't take it personally, but this is like looking for Great Navigators for the Titanic a month after it's sunk. I think we all know who the great contributors have been. Let me rephrase that - no we don't all know who these folks are. Ever since Ken initiated this "award" I always considered it some sort of masturbatory bs. I think it insults the people working day-to-day helping Fox developers in a much more hostile environment than we had in the heydey. It was easy being a Fox guru in the 80's and 90's and it's really hard now. So why worry about an award for folks who swam with the current? To heck with the old gurus (myself included); what can we do for the new guys?
