InfoWorld Bossie Awards
(Best of Open Source Software)

Each year, InfoWorld's Bossies (Best of Open Source Software awards) recognize the best open source software for business. The InfoWorld Test Center's central mission has always been to identify the most promising and cost-effective products available to IT organizations. Increasingly, those products -- from application development tools to platforms and infrastructure software to CRM and ERP applications -- come from the open source camp.

We invite you to bring superior open source products to our attention using the submission form below. Our selection committee is looking for innovation, functionality, ease of use and implementation, and a proven track record in serving the needs of businesses. The deadline for submitting nominations for the 2008 Bossies is May 1, and the winners will be announced July 7.
