The Insider's Guide to Next-Generation BPM

GroundWork Open Source announced Mozilla’s Firefox had beaten out the other three contestants, reigning champion “Tux” the Linux kernel penguin, “Beastie” the BSD demon and the GNU “Gnu” to become the world’s favorite Open Source Idol.
ebizQ received the following:
During the first ever “Who’s the Next Open Source Idol?” contest held at LinuxWorld 2008 last week, Firefox proved he was the only mascot capable of bringing down the reigning champion – “Tux” the Linux penguin. After a three day neck and neck race of crazy dancing, bull riding, singing, rapping and polling LinuxWorld attendees, Firefox left third place “Tux” out in the cold, winning with 48.5 percent of the final vote. In the end, it came down to the votes of more than 1100 open source fans to decide who would be the next Open Source Idol.
Poll Results
“I was impressed by all the dedicated open source fans out there willing to support their favorite open source mascot,” said Tara Spalding, VP of marketing for GroundWork Open Source. “From dancing the cabbage patch to IT guys doing the worm, the LinuxWorld Idol craze hit the showroom floor.”
“They always say song choice is so important in the final rounds,” said a weary Tux. “I was told to be “current”. Instead of that “Move It, Move It” product placement song, I really should have gone with “Ice Ice Baby”.”
