> ANNOUNCING: CALL FOR CANDIDATES FOR ITOJUN SERVICE AWARD
> 
> The Itojun Service Award is presented every year to an individual or a
> group who has made outstanding contributions in service to the IPv6
> community.   The deadline for nominations for this year's award is 15
> July 2011.  The award will be presented at the 82nd meeting of the
> IETF to be held in November 2011 in Taipei, Taiwan.
> 
> About the Award
> 
> The Itojun Service Award was established by the friends of Itojun and
> administered by the Internet Society (ISOC), recognises and
> commemorates the extraordinary dedication exercised by Itojun over the
> course of IPv6 development.  The award includes a presentation
> crystal, a US$3,000 honorarium, and a travel grant.
> 
> The award is focused on pragmatic technical contributions, especially
> through development or operation, with the spirit of servicing the
> Internet.  With respect to the spirit, the selection committee seeks
> contributors to the Internet as a whole; open source developers are a
> common example of such contributors, although this is not a
> requirement for expected nominees.  While the committee primarily
> consider practical contributions such as software development or
> network operation, higher level efforts that help those direct
> contributions will also be appreciated in this regard.  The
> contribution should be substantial, but could be immature or ongoing;
> this award aims to encourage the contributor to keep their efforts,
> rather than just recognizing well established work.  Finally,
> contributions of a group of individuals will be accepted as deployment
> work is often done by a large project, not just a single outstanding
> individual.
> 
> The award is named after Dr. Jun-ichiro "Itojun" Hagino, who passed
> away in 2007, aged just 37.  Itojun worked as a Senior Researcher at
> Internet Initiative Japan Inc. (IIJ), was a member of the board of the
> Widely Integrated Distributed Environment (WIDE) project, and from
> 1998 to 2006 served on the groundbreaking KAME project in Japan as the
> "IPv6 samurai". He was also a member of the Internet Architecture
> Board (IAB) from 2003 to 2005.
