1. Euphoria Contests (future and present)
I know I should'nt bring the subject up before the 2nd and 3rd
contests have been judged but ....
I think the contests are a great idea and hope that the tradition lives
on.
I don't think it would be possible to have regular contests with the
euMoney prizes, I'd be happy still participating just for the fun
alone.
For me personally I'm happy with the smaller sized contests at the
level of the current contest 1 or 2.
I just don't have the time to even try the large contests.
I think a small contest every second month would be great. That gives
everyone a month to do it, and the next month can be used for
judging and discussing algorithms and effieciency of the entries.
I still think it would be great if RDS still run a major contest like
the current one once or twice a year if they are able to.
I also would like to see entries listed in order of merit once judged.
Would anyone mind to see their name last on the list?
Woudn't worry me :)
So ... what are peoples opinions of the current and future contests?

Hullo,
I do like the idea! I'm very excited about the topic of the next contest
and I am very angry that I didn't submitted my program for contest #2.
It's in pure Euphoria but it works and I could have been in the top 10!

So what will be the next contest?
Ahm... and one more thing. Even without cash prize I would be happy to
see announcements on the Euphoria website like: "I'd need an include
file with HTML2CSS(s1,s2) procedure where the submitted s1 HTML 3.2 file
should be rewritten as s2 according to the 4.1 specification.
Depriciated things should be included in an external CSS file. It should
be as fast as it's possible and after the conversion they should look
preferably the same ..."
I am only a hobby programmer but from time to time I have some time. I'd
work on simple(!) things but I am too lazy to search the EUforum for
such announcements or to open an IDE.EXW and think whether I could
optimize any of the functions there. It would be useful for some
projects, wouldn't it?
With regards,
Salix

I would like to know at which position I am in contest #2 once results are
known.
