The document announces an awards competition hosted by ESUG in 2009 to encourage innovation and development of Smalltalk software. The goal is to advertise Smalltalk and related VM software by releasing and making publicly available Smalltalk code submissions. Any Smalltalk code is eligible for the awards, including free, commercial, academic, or other types of code. Winners will be determined based on number of submissions by country, dialect, and whether from academia or companies. Prizes totaling 1000 Euros will be awarded to the top submissions, with 500, 300, and 200 Euros for first, second, and third place respectively.
