Vote for Open Source @ COMDEX
I just got this link of our phpMyAdmin-Dev Mailinglist: Vote in O'Reilly's "Open Source Goes to COMDEX" Contest
You can there see [once you've become a 'free member' of their site, of course ;-)] a list of a couple of Open Source Applications and vote for any three projects. Voting means there, that the top 6 applications listed will get a chance to be represented at the COMDEX.

- phpMyAdmin (Obviously, huh?)
- TightVNC
- SquirrelMail (which is one of the most commonly used applications for me, besides Mozilla, Trillian and Sharpreader)
