caption_attribution_description: The New Zealand Open Source Awards (NZOSA) recognize contributions from New Zealand to open source in many different areas. For more information, please see nzosa.org.nz
context_page_description: The New Zealand Open Source Society is an incorporated society supporting the advocacy and promotion of open-source software in New Zealand.
context_section_description: The inaugural New Zealand Open Source Awards were held in 2007, with the Society involved in both organisation and sponsorship. These awards now run bi-annually and serve to showcase the contributions of New Zealanders directly to open-source projects or the promotion of open source generally, as well as exemplary use of open source by New Zealand organisations. The Awards help to raise awareness of the open-source advantage for New Zealand by telling some powerful success stories based on real achievements.
  Then awards were held again in 2008 and have run biennially since then. The most recent awards were held at Te Papa Tongarewa on 23 October 2018.
