A large volume of nominations across all categories have already been received, but S&S Media is calling for even more submissions to ensure the JAX innovation Awards reflect opinion across the entire Java Ecosystem.

Companies and individuals are free to nominate the people, technologies and companies they feel most deserve recognition for their value to the world of Java. Nominations can be made at http://jax-awards.com/submissions.html

When nominations close on Monday May 16, an expert panel will review entries and determine a shortlist for voting.  The panel includes RedMonk’s James Governor; Groovy, Grails and GPars committer, Dierk König; Kito Mann, editor-in-chief of JSF Central, Duke's Choice Award 2005 winner Fabiane Bizinella Nardon; Ted Neward of Neward & Associates; Bruno Souza, Java champion and evangelist, industry reporter Darryl K. Taft; and Sebastian Meyen of S&S Media.
