Congratulations to Telecomix alumnus Asher Wolf, who was awarded the 2014 Print/Online Award for Journalism along with Oliver Laughland and Paul Farrell at the Amnesty International Australia Media Awards on 21 October 2014! ~~~~~====::) ~~~~~====::) ~~~~~====::)

I don't have a lot of time, so I'll be brief:

A few months ago Project Byzantium sent an application for the Access Innovation Prize, an initiative that will award five $20kus grants to projects operating in five problem spaces (Blackout Resilience, Making Crypto Easy, The Bounty, The Golden Jellybean, and the Access Facebook Award).

We were recently notified that we are finalists in the Blackout Resilience category and will be attending the awards ceremony on 10 December 2012.
