This is fabulous news! :) Thanks Lisa!
Great news, and I feel the same as Lisa. I depend on the talents of so many great people to develop with WP and WPMU that sponsoring a contest like this is a no-brainer for me.
Anyone else want to join the fun?
Excellent news Lisa! Keep the plugins rolling in everyone!
I don’t have to feel it, like you. I think I am a lazy ass.. But thanks to the hard working! I will be there up top with you soon enough!
There certainly have been some great plugins inspired by this and other contests. Looking foward to the next one.
