Following the completion of the OGC international survey on the "Business Value of Standards" in December 2011, the OGC are pleased to announce the winners of our random prize draw:
1st: Nick Lawrence of Queensland Department of Transport and Main Roads, Australia won an iPad 2 (16GB, WiFi).
2nd: Luc Donéa of Intergraph Corporation, Belgium won an Apple iPod touch 8GB (4th Generation).
3rd: Satyanarayanan Raghavendran of Pixel Softek, India won a set of Bose AE2 headphones.
The OGC would like to congratulate these survey respondents and thank everyone who took time out from their busy schedule to help others understand more about open standards development and business value.
The OGC would also like to thank OGC members Kexin Zhao (University of North Carolina - Charlotte) and Mu Xia (Santa Clara University) for their help so far with the survey, and with their pending review of the overall results.
Preliminary results will be presented at the India Geospatial Forum next week in Gurgaon, India. The final results will hopefully be available for the BVC session during the OGC Technical Committee meeting in Austin, TX.
