After looking around for a more capable (and free) text editor to replace Notepad, I've been using Notepad++ for some time now, and it has become indispensable.

So I'm rather pleased to see that it has won a Sourceforge Community Award for 'Best Tool or Utility for Developers', although not being a Developer myself I think the title sells it short a little.

Congratulations are also in order for OpenOffice, which won three titles: Best Project, Best Project for the Enterprise and Best Project for Educators.

It's interesting to note that Microsoft was a Diamond sponsor of the awards.
