    People who may be interested in such a contest may not even be Linux users.
    I think that most of the entries will come from people with at least SOME experience with Linux. It seems to me that most people who are interested in contributing to Linux distros are USING one. Correct me if I'm wrong.

    That said, I'm interested to see what they come up with.
