Voting for European of the Year

Hi!
I think many of you were involved in the topic "Softwarepatents in the EU"
Now there's the all-year's awarded election for the "European of the year", and 'Florian Mueller', the person behind www.nosoftwarepatents.org is listed there. Further in some other categories some other people are, which I mostly never heard of, but here's a list with recommendations:

Perhaps some of us take the time and vote for him - it would be great if he would win or become high-ranked, the award's money would flow to the FFII, (the main organisation coordinating the anti-software-patent-actions and cooperating with Florian Mueller), and the media would unroll the software-patent-topic again. And I really think this software-patent-story was like a thriller with a positive surprising democratic and nearly happy end.
