As many of you already know, the Unicode Consortium sponsors an annual award for outstanding personal contributions to the philosophy and dissemination of the Unicode Standard. Known as the "Bulldog Award," it is presented at the Unicode conference to recognize "those tenacious champions of Unicode who have produced solid achievements in promoting its use around the globe".
The Consortium invites the Unicode community to nominate up to two people they believe are most deserving of this award. Nominations should include a brief rationale why the candidate would be a good choice. Please check http://unicode.org/conference/bulldog.html to see a list of past winners and send nominations to magda@unicode.org with "Bulldog Award nomination" in the subject line by August 29, 2011.
Executive officers and staff of the Unicode Consortium are not eligible for the award.
Thank you for your time.
Magda Danish
Senior Administrative Director
