Two weeks ago, I began accepting applications for servers . Last time I received applications by mail, this time I decided to make the acceptance of applications public. ')
Applicants for free servers in their undivided property left applications in the comments to the post on Habré and in social networks: VK , FB , Twitter .
Those who wanted to even tried to leave a request anonymously or came out to me through other channels and persuaded to give a piece of iron. But I stood firmly :) Open competition - what could be more honest?
As a result, there were about 700 applications. This is a lot. Of these, with great difficulty and mental anguish, I selected 26 candidates. But there are only 12 servers! By tradition, I invite our dear users to vote for the most worthy candidates. Servers will go to those who get the most votes.
In my opinion this is the most honest scheme that you can think of. Habr has repeatedly proved his wisdom. I think the same will be this time.
So vote!
Under the post I left comments with numbers, brief descriptions of applications and links to detailed texts of applications in the form in which the applicant submitted them to the competition. I'm sure Habr will make the right decision!
