$username,

The polls are closed and the results for the 2017 LinuxQuestions.org Members Choice Award are in. We once again had some extremely close races and the large number of new categories this year certainly kept things interesting. Congratulations to each and every nominee. Visit https://www.linuxquestions.org/quest...rs-4175623289/ for the official results.

Follow us on twitter: https://twitter.com/linuxquestions

Based on feedback we've added LQ T-shirts to Amazon, which are available with free Prime shipping. Visit https://tqn.me/LQamz for the current selection. For a broader list of options (far beyond shirts), we will continue to support and offer https://www.zazzle.com/linuxquestions* as well.

The most important material is condensed into five sections, each designed to be consumed in a day.
