JavaWorld proudly announces
the finalists for its 2003 JavaWorld
Editors' Choice Awards. Established in 1997, the awards
recognize innovative companies, organizations, and individuals for their
commitment to developing new Java tools and technologies. Finalists were chosen
from more than 150 products and technologies nominated by vendors and
JavaWorld readers, editors,
and writers.

JavaWorld's panel of
judges-consisting of JavaWorld editors and
contributors-participated in several rounds of voting to determine which
products or technologies most deserve finalist status. In choosing the
finalists, the judges carefully weighed each product or technology on the basis
of its features and functions, as well as its impact in advancing Java as a
language and/or platform. Eligible products or technologies must have shipped on
or before April 1, 2003.
Please note
that finalists are listed in alphabetical order per category. One winner will be
named in each category on June 9, 2003 to coincide with the JavaOne conference
in San Francisco that week.
