As we wrap up our third annual conference, we thank all of our speakers, | ||
sponsors, volunteers, exhibitors, and attendees! Each year we see greater | ||
community participation and record attendance numbers. | ||
|
||
We're also grateful to everyone who either invited friends to SeaGL or | ||
spread the word through social media. Word of mouth is absolutely critical to | ||
the success of our conference. | ||
|
||
Special thanks goes to the staff at [500 East](http://www.500eastsh.com/), | ||
who hosted our keynote speeches and after-party. | ||

The Cascadia Community Builder Award recognizes a person who has made an | ||
outstanding contribution to the free software movement in the Cascadia region. | ||
The 2015 inaugural winner is Michael Dexter. | ||
|
||
The award was given for the first time on Saturday, October 24th at the Seattle | ||
GNU/Linux conference and is expected to remain a feature of the local event. | ||
Michael was chosen because his work with the Portland Linux/Unix Group and the | ||
BSD community exemplified the type of unsung community-building work that is so | ||
critical to the growth of the free software movement. | ||
|
||
Michael has used BSD Unix systems since January of 1991 and provides BSD and | ||
ZFS support at Gainframe. He has supported BSD Unix with download mirrors, | ||
events, and projects for over a decade and is best known for his virtualization | ||
work. His advice for free software community activists is, "Trust your | ||
instincts, ask lots of questions, and ignore the discouragement that will come | ||
from every side." | ||
|
||
Michael was nominated by someone who got to know him through his tireless work | ||
with the Portland Linux User Group. The nomination reads, "Michael has | ||
organized over one hundred speakers for our two monthly meetings, including | ||
Linus Torvalds, Bradley Kuhn, and Ward Cunningham." | ||
|
||
Michael received an engraved | ||
multi-tool, made by the Oregon-based Leatherman company, that includes both a | ||
bottle opener and a wire stripper -- critical tools for every free software | ||
community organizer. He will also be invited to participate in choosing | ||
the recipient of future Cascadia Community Builder awards. | ||
|
||
Nominations for the 2016 honoree will open next summer. |
