While we are attached to the format, we aren't attached to you clicking through dialog boxes or choosing things manually. Everything at our end is done (I think fairly transparently) through http GET and POST requests, so as far as I'm aware there's nothing stopping anyone from writing client software that downloads the input, runs your program on it and uploads the output and code. I suspect it would be a fun afternoon's worth of coding and that's it. Of course, you might need a running contest to test it out. If anyone's seriously interested in working on such a tool, let me know and I can give you something to play with. We might even be able to change the site slightly if it would make your life significantly easier, though no promises. :-) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "google-codejam" group.
