[acs-r] Free Software Foundation "Social Benefit" award nominations

[Ezra Haber Glenn]

acs.R Community:

The Free Software Foundation is now accepting nominations for the 2017
"Project of Social Benefit Award," presented to the project or team
responsible for applying free software, or the ideas of the free
software movement, in a project that intentionally and significantly
benefits society in other aspects of life.

If anyone is willing to nominate the acs package, the recognition
would be much appreciated -- the package has been generous supported
by MIT and the Puget Sound Regional Council, as well as a great deal
of user-feedback and creative development on the part of the
ACS/Census/R community.

The nomination form is quick and easy -- see
<https://my.fsf.org/projects-of-social-benefit-award-nomination>.
Deadline 11/5.

Thanks!
