All things being equal, the simplest explanation is usually the correct
one.

This being april-1-2002, all the named on the 'name-list' being rather
bogus or names of competing products, the vote and write-in scripts
being completely non-existant and PAN having a rather large gag-history
(pan going commercial etc) it's a safe bet that this is a joke :)

Have fun... there will probably be a lot more today (although I haven't
seen any on slashdot/osdn sites yet this year)
