Update: I announced contest close on the opening day of
registration[1] but Derek announced an earlier deadline on January
22nd[2]. Sorry for the confusion! To draw a reasonable compromise,
*the contest closes tonight, January 24th, at midnight PST*. (That's
2007-01-25 08:00:00 UTC.) After the contest closes, we'll continue
scoring the backlog of patches submitted before the deadline then
announce the winners this weekend.

So far, 258 participants have opened 443 tickets, submitted 501
patches, and made 2976 changes. Congratulations! And the leaderboard's
still tight with 17 hours to go..[3]

Thanks all,
jeremy
