Future contests

I think it would be a good idea for these competitions to become a
regular occurance.

It's very generous of Derek to 'donate' the money from the win32lib
project for a pool, and the additional funds volunteered by other
registered users is nice, too. What about future contests? Given the
framework in place for 'voting' for euphoria projects, it'd be a good
idea if there was a blank project representing a contest pool. Someone
who organised a contest could ask Rob, and be given permission to
award a certain amount of Euphoria money to the winners. What do you
think? The registered users who entered the competition could be
'encouraged' to put their monthly allowance into the pool as well.

I thought I'd done very well in my competition entry as far as
optimisation goes - Kudos to those who managed a whopping 30% increase
in speed. I can't imagine how you've done it, though I will certainly
have a look once the competition is over.

In a fit of mildly sour grapes, I've started working on a framework
for another competition, due to start *after* the current one is
finished - one where speed means nothing, thankfully.
However, I'll not say anything else until it's time, 'cause that's
unfair to Derek. So I guess I'm nominating myself to administrate the
second competition, if there's no problem with that...
