Getting celebrity judges is a novelty, a gimmick, and it will be seen as such by those who don't normally get PDFs. I still think this is something to be judge by our own peers within the e-publishing industry. It should be our standards that we judge, not our standards given to someone else, or someone else using their standards.It took Sundance a number of years for it to gain its prominence within the movie industry. This isn't something that will catapult PDFs into mainstream overnight. Who knows, this could become a showcase for publishers to come and check out which materials they may wish to publish in "hard form" before it's released.That being said, is this supposed to be an award show looking back over the past year, or a showcase for new products all at once, with awards (as listed previously) given out at the end?</blockquote>
