2010 Fed 100

About a week ago, Federal Computer Week released the 2010 version of its Federal 100 list. As always, it's an impressive "who's who" list for the federal IT community. In 1990, when the Fed 100 was born, FCW's then-editor Edith Holmes noted that the agency officials, industry leaders and executives on the Fed 100 “have acted as agents for change in the way agencies and companies develop, acquire and manage information technology. ... In many cases, the results of their efforts will be lasting.” Years later, those words still define what the awards represent.

This year, we're excited to see Red Hat's Gunnar Hellekson named as one of the Fed 100 honorees. Gunnar's work furthering open government initiatives and open source adoption in federal agencies is impressive, and he's someone we're proud to work with and know. Congratulations to Gunnar and everyone at Red Hat on the honor!
