Ceremony</A></H4>
<P>
The 2000 Free Software Foundation Award Ceremony was held at the Museum of
Jewish Art and History in Paris, France on the evening of 1 February 2001.
The ceremony was sponsored by Aurora, Idealx, and VA Linux Systems. The
<A HREF="http://www.april.org";>Association for Promotion and Research in
Libre Computing (APRIL)</A>, the French associate organization of the Free
Software Foundation Europe, organized the ceremony. Proceeds from the
event went to benefit the <A HREF="http://www.fsfeurope.org";>Free Software
Foundation Europe</A>.
<P>
Richard Stallman presented the award, a one-of-a-kind handmade quilt,
to Brian Paul for his ground-breaking work on the Mesa 3D Graphics
Library.
<P>
Brian Paul was chosen from three finalists for the award. The other
finalists were Donald Becker, for his network device drivers for the
GNU/Linux system and Patrick Lenz for his work on freshmeat.net.
<P>
At the ceremony, additional awards were also distributed. Georg
C. F. Greve, president designate of the FSF Europe, presented Daniel Riek
with a certificate of appreciation for his seminal funding of the Free
Software Foundation Europe. Frederic Couchet, president of APRIL, presented
Loic Dachary with an award commemorating his unwavering support and
contributions to free software over the past 14 years.

<h4><a HREF="#TOCmovie" NAME="movie">Movie of the Ceremony</a></h4>
<p>
An MPEG-2 movie of the event is available at <a
HREF="http://audio-video.gnu.org/";><code>http://audio-video.gnu.org/</code></a>.
Beware : it is a very big file (1.2 GB).
<p>
The movie was captured and encoded using free software. Since it's not yet
mature, no streamed view is available, the stream is somewhat buggy and
you must expect to experience software bugs when reading it. Hopefully
this will encourage developers to build better free software to capture
and display MPEG-2. <a
href="mailto:address@hidden";>Christophe Massiot</a> wrote a
<a href="http://www.via.ecp.fr/~massiot/encoding.html";>complete
description</a> of the capture process. The movie can be viewed with the
<a href="http://www.videolan.org/";>VideoLAN</a> Client, <a
href="http://www.videolan.org/packages/unstable/";> version 0.2.5</a> or
later, a solution developed for MPEG-2 streaming on a LAN.
<p>
It's worth mentioning that <a
href="http://www.videolan.org/";>VideoLAN</a> was officially <a
href=http://videolan.via.ecp.fr/images/paper.jpeg>released under the
GPL</a> by <a href=http://www.ecp.fr/>Ecole Centrale de Paris</a> for
the occasion, after active lobbying from the <a
href=http://www.idealx.com>IDEALX</a> team and all the <a
href=http://www.videolan.org/>VideoLAN</a> project members involved in
the operation.
