A lot of people enjoy programming contests, but I'm not sure if the UUG is really the best organization for this. We welcome a lot of members who really aren't into programming, but who enjoy free software, system administration, web design, etc. I know that our local ACM chapter does programming contests; I wonder if this would be a good group to set up a faceoff with. -- Andrew McNabb http://www.mcnabbs.org/andrew/ PGP Fingerprint: 8A17 B57C 6879 1863 DE55 8012 AB4D 6098 8826 6868 -------------------- BYU Unix Users Group http://uug.byu.edu/ The opinions expressed in this message are the responsibility of their author.
