Alex,Like we had earlier agreed, we had quite a really short window of time to pull up the contest from getting Sponsors., to getting Judges, criteria etc all in less than 30days. But it seems the page redirects from wikipedia have helped us loop in volunteers and from the other Personal Volunteers i had pulled up who keep pestering me about the contest, we can synch up a quick Criteria and judging so that we get it up and running.We can synch up on a wiki or anywhere to pull this up by end of week?We can then pull in Lodewijik once we have something. Get back to me on this? Hoping you are still in Area Code 254? :-)I suggest Steve keeps the Volunteers on the Commons Page engaged through email and discussions on how/what they could helpWay to go good people. Am happy a few good things have happened in WMKE after a seemingly lengthy spell of misfortunes. :-)
