Seattle, WA (PRWEB) June 8, 2007 -- DotNetNuke® Corporation (www.dotnetnuke.com),
producers of the highly acclaimed open source web application framework
for the Microsoft platform, today announced that the product has been
honored with the 2007 Editors Choice Award from Visual Studio Magazine
as part of their annual Readers' Choice Awards. The full list of
winners, which appears in the June 2007 issue, is chosen by Visual
Studio Magazine's readers and honors excellent software in 22
development categories. The Editors Choice Award is a special
designation given to products which show "special merit or innovation."
Patrick Meader, Visual Studio Magazine editor in chief, said, "The
Readers Choice Awards are special because it is an accolade from the
person most qualified to say whether a product is great: the person who
uses it. These aren't managers voting, but developers--developers who
use these tools on a daily basis to simplify their lives and create
better software at a lower price. As such, there is no better
recommendation for the value of a given company's product."
In capturing the Editors pick, DotNetNuke becomes the successor to
the 2006 Editors Choice recipient, Microsoft's SharePoint Portal
Server. For 2007, DotNetNuke® is also proud to share honors with
Microsoft's Expression line of products, which includes Microsoft
Expression Blend and Microsoft Expression Silverlight.
"It is a true honor and privilege to be chosen as a beneficiary of the
2007 Visual Studio Magazine Editors Choice Award," said Shaun Walker,
DotNetNuke® Corporation Co-Founder and CEO. "After 4 years, 440,000
registered users, and over 3.5 million downloads, DotNetNuke® continues
to offer exceptional value and innovation to developers on the
Microsoft platform. We look forward to making an even stronger
connection with our user community at the DotNetNuke® OpenForce '07
conference, co-located with DevConnections in Las Vegas from November
5-8, 2007."
