Vote Florian Mueller for European of the Year – and against Software Patents

As you may or may not have heard, there is an ongoing election for European of the Year. And you don’t have to live in the EU to vote.

Florian Mueller (from nosoftwarepatents.com), who led the successful fight against software patents in the EU earlier this year, is one of the nominees. Wouldn’t it be great if he became the winner?

You can vote directly, however you do need to vote in all 10 categories. If you would like some recommendations and background info based on position/trackrecord (particularly when it comes to software patents), take a look here.

Don’t underestimate the power of our huge community.
Let’s, together, make Florian Mueller European of the Year!

When you vote, you’ll still have to confirm your vote by replying to an email automatically sent to you by the EV50 organisation that handles the European of the Year vote thing. And please make sure you only vote exactly once: the system works such that if you try to vote multiple times, all your votes become void.

Thanks, and happy voting!
