Winners Kenny, Dan, Christoph, Dominik, Aleix
QtCon talks closed with our annual awards ceremony, the Akademy Awards. Given each year to the most valued and hardest working KDE contributors, they are awarded by the jury from the previous year. This year's winners are:
Best Non-Application Contribution
Aleix Pol who for many years has worked hard not just on KDE code but also on the community with KDE e.V. as a board member and KDE España.
Best Application
Dominik Haumann and Christoph Cullmann for their work making Kate and the related parts. We all rely on a quality text editor and KDE has the finest one.
Jury Award
To Daniel Vrátil and the KDE PIMsters for creating and maintaining the largest suite of communication applications in the world.
The Organisers
As is traditional, an award was given to the organisers of Akademy, this year represented by Kenny Coyle who has been helping out for nearly a decade running the videos and many other tasks.
