Software Product Line Hall of Fame

A hall of fame serves as a way to recognize distinguished members of a community in a field of endeavor. Those elected to membership in a hall of fame represent the highest achievement in their field, serving as models of what can be achieved and how. Each Software Product Line Conference culminates with a session in which members of the audience nominate systems for induction into the Software Product Line Hall of Fame. These nominations feed discussions about what constitutes excellence and success in product lines. The goal is to improve software product line practice by identifying the best examples in the field. Nominations are acted on by a panel of expert judges, who decide which nominees will be inducted into the Hall of Fame. You can read about the current members of the Software Product Line Hall of Fame at http://www.sei.cmu.edu/productlines/plp_hof.html. Inductees from 2005 will be announced at the SPLC 2006 Hall of Fame session.
