Posted by timothy on from the warm-up-your-swedish dept.

mvw writes "The web pages for the ICFP 2003 programming contest are online! It starts Saturday, 28th June 0:00 GMT. As the time zone hints, this year it is organized in Sweden." From the rules page: "All programmers are invited to enter the contest, either individually or in teams. The contest offers direct, head-to-head comparison of language technology and programming skill. We have a range of prizes for the winners: cash awards, books, invitations to the conference for students, and, of course, unlimited bragging rights. The prizes will be awarded at ICFP 2003 in Uppsala this August."

    I'm just a little bitter thats all. I had the scoop on this almost a week ago, sigh.

    But on the on-topic side, I plan on participating and doing my entry in PHP, just for kicks :). If there are any other PHP programmers that would like to be on my team feel free to respond here or e-mail me, the rules don't say what the max number of people we can have on a team is.
