During this time, I would appreciate the following: * Any corrections to information on the pages (i.e. false credit) * Any embellishments from the nominees themselves, such as: - background/history/biographical information - instructions for using the service (if it's complex) - pointers to highlights of site -------------------------------------- Here is the expected schedule of completion: MAY 4-9: Public Viewing of Nominees, last-minute editions MAY 10-24: Public Voting for Awards MAY 26: Awards announced & trophies presented at WWW'94 in Geneva MAY 27: Permanent awards exhibit displayed here JUNE: Trophies mailed to absent award recipients -------------------------------------- Sorry for the LONG delay. I'm sure many of you gave up on me! Hope this service will be of use to everyone. I've been very impressed by the nominees, and am sorry that I had to turn away so many. The Web is truly becoming a valuable resource, and I congratulate you all for that accomplishment. Brandon Plewe SUNY/Buffalo plewe () acsu buffalo edu
