---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Flora Kang <ossawa...@gmail.com> Date: Thu, Jun 20, 2013 at 5:48 PM Subject: Dear Professor Schweik, To: cschw...@pubpol.umass.edu My name is Sohee Kang. I’m in charge of attracting participants to the Korean government's Ministry of Science, ICT & Future Planning's Open Source Software World Challenge 2013. This is the 7th competition. USD $31,000 in total will be awarded to winners in the international division of this open source software competition. I’m really sorry for bothering you, but we would feel highly honored to have your students as participants. *International participants are exclusively allowed to submit any open source software developed within one year, even if they got a prize from another competition with it. In addition, even projects over one year old will be accepted by our judging panel as well, if it has been significantly improved recently.* Please visit our website www.ossaward.org. Our registration deadline is August 4th. The final submission deadline is October 6th. I hope you encourage your students to participate. I’m quite sure that this will be a great opportunity for them. Every team that submits its completed project will get an official certificate issued by NIPA of Korea. They have only to submit project document, source code and demo video in English, or provide the project URL including all. We’ll wire the award money to the winners. If you have any questions or need more information, please contact me at ossawa...@gmail.com . Your help would be greatly appreciated.
