-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 Hello,
thanks for your replies. So as the competition was on the weekend at Hockenheimring, I know have time to figure it out til next year. It really was a short-term idea and we were aware that we might not solve it in time, although I got quite near. I started to define a new question type which looks quite promising but have not finished yet. What's that new class about to be finished you were talking about? I suppose it's somewhere in the repositories?
