We have opened the nominations for Kenneth Gonsalves award for this
year.

towards Python community development and/or otherwise
adoption/advocacy/development
of Python programming language in local communities in India.

Kindly send in your nominations which will be reviewed and a winner
selected. The award would be presented during PyCon India 2016.
I'd really hesitate to say "a winner". This implies that there is an
all-or-nothing approach. The KG award is intended to honor and
recognize exemplary contributions - the *recipient* should be selected
after review.
I read through the content at
<
https://in.pycon.org/blog/2016/kg-award-2016-nominations.html> and I
feel that the text below might be more appropriate
++ Begin ++
PyCon India 2016 is continuing with the tradition of recognizing
exemplary work in the Python community in India. The contributions
could be in the field of advocacy; development of the Python
programming language and/or increasing the adoption of Python.
The recognition is in the form of the KG Award which has been
instituted by the PSSI. The award is in the name of Kenneth Gonsalves,
a friend, mentor and founder of the Indian Python Software Society.
Kenneth, or, KG passed away in August 2012
The PSSI seeks and welcomes nominations for this award. If you would
