VANCOUVER, British Columbia – April 11, 2002 – Congratulations to Michael Hall of Australia, winner of the $1000 O'Reilly Bookshelf. Michael's name was selected at random from all participants in the ActiveState Programming Survey. His prize entitles him to the O'Reilly titles of his choice, to a total value of US$1000. ActiveState would like to thank all survey participants for taking the time to provide feedback. Your responses will help us to continue to support the open source community through our language distributions and programming tools. We received over 15,000 survey responses and we're busy compiling the results.

If you're interested in what we've learned, stay tuned to this space. We'll be posting the results in a home page announcement next month. ActiveState would also like to extend our sincere apologies to those who were contacted regarding the survey without their permission. We have taken steps to ensure this error will not be repeated, and would like to reaffirm our commitment to the ActiveState Privacy Policy. Again, congratulations to Michael and thanks to everyone who participated! ActiveState
