A few special awards have yet to announce their nominees; hopefully we'll notice when those announcements are made and be able to run the information. Through the link you can find the long list of contributors to each list. The list gave the French and English words for each category, which I didn't feel necessary to replicate although I do believe in keeping the titles untranslated if that's the work that's nominated.
