1. Euphoria Contests for Source Code
Why isn't there a contest for the owners of
the source code. If something is created
that improves the source code then everyone
becomes a winner.

Because Rob would not support it, and it would not have those features that
come only from RDS. The features would be argued about, and not be
included in the RDS version.

Rob probably would support it, on the basis He picks the best He
agrees with (for next release), but:
1) After 12 years, Rob has tried everything He thinks is a good idea.
At least twice, I would guess. So don't expect him to suggest anything
2) It is exclusive, Rob wants to encourage newcomers, not those he has
already sold his product to. (Quite right too)
3) There's too few people capable.
