We've made a few changes to the rules and platform for Code Jam from last
year.  Here are some highlights:

- MATLAB is now allowed.  Since Octave and other open-source
implementations exist, it seemed like a good idea.
 - We're no longer restricted by the rules to the format where there's one
Small input and one Large input for every problem.
- The qualification round is now 25 hours instead of 24.
- You can now (as of about 20 minutes ago) change your nickname when
registering, or when on the "Update Profile" page.  We don't encourage this
-- after all, it's the only way all the other contestants know who you are
-- but a lot of people wanted the feature anyway.  This will also update
the nickname on your scoreboard rows in old contests; please let me know if
you have any trouble with this.

Cheers!
Bartholomew
