It's a group effort, so any award to Groklaw is to all of
us.
Yes that's true but all of us can see how hard you work so don't
be over-modest!

Many times, yes,
but not in this case! You have redefined the meaning of "Journalism"!!! You
have shown the Finest example of Ethics and Integrity! Groklaw.net will be used
as an example in both Law Schools, and Journalism Schools for many years to
come! CONGRATULATIONS!!! Rick Stanley [ Reply to This | # ]

Congratulations.
Here we are, 2006 and all, and now I think the Internet
has come of age to disseminate correct and factual
information that otherwise wouldn't be seen.
Where would we all be without it, with the likes of MS,
SCO et al trying everything in the book to control the
world?
Good job Pamela, and very well deserved to all.
Nick

A much deserved honor for a very deserving person. I know I speak for a good

ethics, standards and effort are second to none. Main stream media need to take
notice on how investigative journalism should be done.

There are very few blogs/forums I absolutely must keep in daily or near daily
contact with and Groklaw is very definitely at the top of the list and has been
since its early days.
Congratulations above all to PJ for kicking it off, setting the standards and
putting in so much hard work. As you say though PJ Groklaw is also about the
community you have built and my congratulations too go to everyone who has
contributed to making this such a fascinating and educational blogg to join in.
Thank you very much one and all, but above PJ for all you have contributed and
best wishes for the future.
Richard.

I'd like to suggest using that little grey-green rectangle at the top left of
the page to display a mini-graphic of your most recent awards (there's not
really room for all SIX, is there?)
Keep it comin' PJ.
congratulations,

Dear Pamela,
I'm from Romania and I read your blog since September, when I became interested
in the ODF issue and stumbled across Groklaw. Now it is the first thing I read
in the morning.
I have just registered myself as a user so I can congratulate you for a job well
done. All the nice things people say about you are certainly true. And many
more.
Keep up the good work! Your benefic influence is probably greater than you
imagine.
All the best.

Come on PJ, modesty is a wonderful thing, but there was no way that you could
make that sound convincing. Groklaw has been the first website I open in the
morning for too long now for me to take you seriously here :P

Congratulations, PJ! It is well-deserved. I keep hoping
for a "Groklaw Effect", where "real" journalists are
inspired to actually collect facts and do real
investigative work.
Quit laughing, it could happen!

You might as well be in Wikipedia as the definition of citizen journalism,
except for that's such a naff term. The journalists wish they had your
credibility.
Seriously, though, you have defined that which the journalists are chasing,
which is a blog with a mission that people are watching. And many appear to be
watching. Excellent work, and you deserve at least as much credit as that. I
would think much more, since you're changing the genre as well. I think the more
people see this as an example the more people will expect ethical journalism on
the web. Well, I can dream. I am sure Anonymous will be happy to tell us
otherwise.

I like to see Groklaw receive awards.
The awards Groklaw gets usually
recognize what PJ has done with Groklaw rather than rubberstamping
it.
This is correctly in complete opposition to the view that Darl at SCO
and a few columists attempt to paint of a horde that follows a strict PJ party
line that is unreasonable.
To read Groklaw one does not need to agree with
everything PJ says or does. Information is clearly presented and
debated.
However to believe SCO one has to follow the strict SCO line (or
believe SCO ment well but was wrong or in error; HA).

While humility is a great quality, there are times when you must sit up
straight, nod at the graciousness of the benefactor of the award, give a wave to
the audience and accept their accolades.
I for one, even though I am one of those dreaded "Anonymous" guys,
give you a proud standing ovation!!!
While what you say is true, "any award to Groklaw is to all of us",
you are the true bastion of the message. It is with my humbleness that I read
and follow all the activity on this site.[ Reply to This | # ]

You definitely deserve this PJ. When O'Gara released all your private info...a
lesser person would have ran and hid. But, you stared them right down and
didn't back down.
That shows you have more character than the whole lot of them. I'm impressed by
you and admire you. I think you deserve every award out there.[ Reply to This | # ]

This is excellent news. I'm glad I've had a small hand in it, too. It's nice
to see that the little bit of effort that everyone has put toward this site has
turned into something monumentous.
I admire PJ; I've never seen anyone so dedicated to a cause. This lady stays up
late to put up the latest stories, then rests. Dedication, fortitude, and
bravery are words that I think of immediately when I think of PJ.[ Reply to This | # ]

And now for the Milli Vanilli award for the best onstage acting with great
backstage work . . . the winners are:
PJ and Sammy P. Diddy
This is the 3rd year in a row that the dynamic duo have conned the world into
thinking that this act is somehow real. Great work guys. Now for the hard
part: who is going to come up front and accept the award? <Silence>
Oh well, let's give them both a big hand anyway. <Clap,clap, cheer, cheer.

When folks give awards, they tend to overstate what one has accomplished,
which is very sweet, but I'm also very happy that our work here in covering the
Massachusetts ODF/open standards story has been appreciated. Groklaw's goal is
to explain what is happening, so people understand the deeper legal/tech aspects
of a story in the news.
It's a group effort, so any award to Groklaw is to all
of us. I know that many people have already made their comments on
this statement, but I would like to add my own. You are quite correct in
saying that Groklaw is a group effort and it is self evident that without its
members and contributors it would never have worked. However PJ, it was
you that thought of the concept, you that designed the approach and you that
created the conditions under which it would work. What you have done for
Groklaw is what all really good managers need to do to make an organisation
work. You have done this with panache and style and you truly deserve the
award.
