- What pc's?
- Composers should bring their own kit if they need more than an MSX. 
- You need to introduce a voting system (a voting floppy e.g.) so all 
people present can vote.  

How about restrictions on hardware needed for music?
One big competition or seperate moonsound/fmpac+musicmodule?
Moonsound sampleram size? I'd like to use 640kb.

You need to put competition rules and timetables on a website!!

Ofcourse, why not. You better forget about this one. There's no way 
to implement this.

- Demo hardware? MSX2? RAM? Gfx9000? Moonsound?

Ofcourse not, why?

How do you think a coder can code a whole demo (incl. music/gfx) in 
one day? At other events like this people prepare their stuff MONTHS 
before d-day.

All.
