Think your favorite programming language is the best one out there? Put it to the test in this year's International Conference on Functional Programming's annual Programming Contest. The contest is coming up in a little under 4 weeks and we have just released more information (including a live cd, mailing list, and prize details) to the web page, at: http://icfpc.plt-scheme.org/ This year's competition rewards programmers who can plan ahead. As before, we'll announce a problem and give you three days to solve it. Two weeks later, we'll announce a change to the problem specification and give you one day to adapt your program to the new spec. And you guessed it: the second half will be worth considerably more than the first. Important dates: Problem announced: Friday, June 24th, 9:00am CDT (UTC-6) Initial entries due: Monday, June 27th, 9:00am CDT (UTC-6) Revision announced: Saturday, July 9th, 9:00am CDT (UTC-6) Final entries due: Sunday, July 10th, 9:00am CDT (UTC-6) ICFP Contest Organizers icfpc@plt-scheme.org
