If the intention is to promote Euphoria then i don't think a graphical demo 
compo would be a very good choise. As much as i like Euphoria, you can't get 
around that it falls a bit short when it comes to heavy duty operations like 
alpha-blending, bitmap scaling, polygon rendering etc. Which is why you need 
to write machine code for the time critical sections, so it would really 
become an assembly compo. Otoh, disallowing this would severly restrict what 
one could do. I strongly doubt that some non-animate vector graphics thing 
that looks like something you would've done with QBasic 10 years ago will 
catch peoples attention and make them want to code Euphoria. So i'm thinking 
more along the lines of utility applications/libraries. Can't come up with 
anything more specific than that though..  :)
