Agreed, getting 5 would be awesome. Getting 2 and 4 also would be a big boost for Drupal.

Drupal didn't land any of the prizes

Freso - August 4, 2008 - 11:51

Drupal didn't land any of the prizes. The winners can be seen at SF.net's 2008 Community Choice Awards page.

Ouch

JohnForsythe - August 4, 2008 - 22:07

Ouch. That sucks.. The voting process was kind of cumbersome (required OpenID if I remember correctly), so maybe people just couldn't be bothered.

Drupal vs. the Giants

Freso - August 5, 2008 - 00:38

I didn't find out about it before today, so...

But also, we were competing against giants like OpenOffice.org (1.-3.) and Linux (5.) and a general purpose one such as NotePad++ (4.). All of these are probably used by, if not most then a good sized chunk of the Drupal community alone. Add to that all of those outside the Drupal community using them, and it won't really be a surprise. Drupal is (still?) too much a niche/speciality to make an impact against any of those. But perhaps next year? ;)
