    Daniel Stenberg, the recipient of last year's Award for Excellence in Open Source from the European Open Source Academy, presented
    that award to this year's recipient: Greg Kroah-Hartman.

    It's impossible to overstate the importance of the work Greg has
    done on Linux. In software, innovation grabs headlines, but
    stability saves lives and livelihoods. Every Android phone, every
    web server, every critical system running Linux depends on Greg's
    meticulous work. He ensures that when hospitals, banks,
    governments, and individuals rely on Linux, it doesn't fail
    them. His work represents the highest form of service: unglamorous,
    relentless, and essential.
