So what sort of competition material is accepted for 2007?
Only open source?
Academic fun coding?
The followup project from that product configurator 2005 is in the works now, but far more complex and bigger.
I am not sure if it will meet the deadline (I hope so) but I will not have much time to code for fun-projects.
(Ok, newLISP programming is always fun ;-) )
So when it would be acceptable, it may be possible to put it into the new competition.

(1) free format newlisp code, every one does its own thing?
or
(2) By assignment, we all work on a simmular project but individual
or
(3) someting else..your input please...
Its up to the users to make up "what" and "how we do this contest this year...
I think if enough people reactie on this topic we will have a competiton target by the end of this month.. ;-)
The Price ..Well I think i have to have a chat with Lutz about this again ;-)
PS: Hereby I also invite Lutz to join in too for the competition ! ;-)

probably also with 2d effects! Thus the challange is perhpas even bigger ;-)

I think a newlisp-only backup solution would be great to have. copy a directory structure to another directory structure with the new one all gzipped. With error checking, and maybe the ability to make an iso, or store remotely...Quote from: "tom"
Code Select cp -r $src $dest
find $dest -type f -exec gzip {} ;
Also there is rsync and tar for similar purposes ;-)
More seriously, in a real production backup system the most major will not be a short algorithmic thigs, but a strategical things such as incremental/differential methods, media pools, media types, etc., which are requires a good practical backup competition.

That's a mouthful to say, but I think it would be an eminently-doable, killer app. People would love to use their old hard disks for failure-resistant backup. I sure would!

So My question to the public?Quote from: "newdep"(a) what shall we do... (1) or (2) or something else...
(b) If (2) or something else, what assigment do we target?
The winning entry here will be the guidelines for the main competition. Maybe we should think about a prize for this one too. :-)
Here's my entry for the pre-competition: let's do a combination of (1) and (2), i.e. let some people compete for the same or similar goals, others will do something unique. We should also allow for individual entries *and* collaborative, or team, entries. We don't even have to have separate categories of prizes for these -- teams can compete against individuals or other teams (make it a simple administration). What do you think?
--Ricky
P.S. -- My project ideas for the main competition will follow soon.

The same goes for Unix only and Windows only applications..
I dont want to rule-out specific applications so we might need to think
of a honoust solution for this..
Its not easy to check that..although forum users can vote I think we need
an independend person per OS to verify indeed that the application works on a
specific OS..Screendumps are welcome and perhaps good documentation if
the application is too difficult to track from a screendump..

I also think that the newlisp/gui/server stuff needs a nice name for reffring to it. Perhaps that's another competition?
My suggestion: "Aeshna". It doesn't stand for anything. Although it could do: "advanced environment supporting high-level newlisp actions".

I think that the obvious subject for a competition is "design something cool with the gui-server"... New features need lots of examples and cool demos.Quote from: "cormullion"
Whoa! Not so fast, cormullion. :-) Considering that you were asking about how best to configure or change the wiki, how about designing a plugin framework for the wiki? Now that would be cool. It would make adding functionality, like calendars, image/file uploads, spam control for posting, etc., a LOT easier. What do you think?

project a little more Client-dependent..

I'm going to enter them for the 'Not Very Lisp-y But Possibly Useful Category'.
-------
1:
This is based on the version of Markdown which I'm using to write entries for my site. It's a kind of testing setup which I'm using.
This is still a work-in-progress (I try to fix one bug every month :-)!
(Note that this file didn't seem to be processed correctly by syntax.cgi so it's a direct download link...)
-------
2:
In the same vein, I'm afraid, here's another testing thing I've used a lot. It's called RegexTester, or Grepper, or Tyrannosaurus Regex. Something.
--------
Both these should work on all platforms, and they're obviously free and un-commercial.
Next time, I hope to have left regular expression hell behind, and moved on to more Lisp-y adventures...!
Countdown:
Code Select (println
(format "%02dd %02dh %02dm %02ds"
(letn
((t (- (parse-date {2007-12-29 23:59:59} {%Y-%m-%d %H:%M}) (date-value)))
(d (% (/ t 86400) 86400))
(h (% (/ t 3600) 24))
(m (% (/ t 60) 60))
(s (% t 60))
)

Here's the basic case
Code Select > (natural-sort '("a10" "a2" "a1" "a14"))
("a1" "a2" "a10" "a14")
> (sort '("a10" "a2" "a1" "a14"))
("a1" "a10" "a14" "a2")
and the embedded case
Code Select > (natural-sort '("i30z" "i3n" "i20n" "i18z"))
("i3n" "i18z" "i20n" "i30z")
> (sort '("i30z" "i3n" "i20n" "i18z"))
("i18z" "i20n" "i30z" "i3n")
Of course there's always the edge cases ...
Code Select > (natural-sort '("i1" "i03" "i5"))
("i1" "i03" "i5")
> (sort '("i1" "i03" "i5"))
("i03" "i1" "i5")
To me having the zero first seems better. But to most non-programmers it doesn't. Hopefully whatever you're sorting in this case will have consistency on leading zeroes.

From your error it seems newLisp is unable to load the GTK-server DLL. Did you compile it from scratch? It should be possible to run GTK on MacOSX, but again, I have never tested it myself...

At least there are lots of very big and complex conditionals.
All gets embedded in the virtual file-system of the delivered EXE.
The EXE gets loaded very fast in one swap and the lisp-stream gets feeded on demand into newLISP with good performance.
One day you must tell us about how newLISP works for big projects.Quote
Since I use autolisp for big projects, why shouldn't newLISP can not do the same?

when creating a Voting on the forum I just did it automaticly this way again..
No special behaviour behind it, Just stupidity of me ;-)

because the users may vote for 1 , 2 3th place you need to vote 3 times.
The voting mechanism on this forum only allows 1 vote per entry..
(that was my stupidity ;-)

I am feeling myself dumb, but I still don't understand the logic behind three separate polls. Consider an example:
Code Select 1 place: A:6 B:4 C:0
2 place: A:2 B:3 C:5
A is definitely the winner. But which is second: B or C? C has more votes for 2-nd place, because most B supporters have given 1-st to it!

The forum does not allow us to vote 3x per vote so you can only vote once
per 1st 2nd or 3th place..
If B has more votes then C then people voted more in vote B
A, B, C are all independent votings per place.

1st -> 3 points
2nd -> 2 points
3rd -> 1 point
This way:
Code Select 1st place: A:6 B:4 C:0
2nd place: A:2 B:3 C:5
A = 6*3 + 2*2 = 18+4 = 22 points
B = 4*3 + 3*2 = 12+6 = 18 points
C = 0*3 + 5*2 = 0+10 = 10 points
Now it is more clear and I think also fair.

Yes it keeping me thinking too, Cyril's option and yours are logical.Quote from: "newdep"
.. Still thinking ;-)
My option? What my option? I have no option, I have a confusion only! The idea of having just one poll can be considered as option, but it is too late -- votes are already collected. So Fanda's algorithm is probably the best one. At least it is easy to explain and understand -- the real advantage.
In fact I have some alternate algorithm in mind, but it is probably not worth to explain -- the discussion of which method is better is the very last thing we need now. ;-)
