  1. Sorry, but I'm not sure: Does this mean Friday dawn to Sunday midnight, or Friday midnight to Monday evening? (supposing Greenwich location). Thanks.

  4. Hi. I was browsing the archives of the ICFP contest in Utrecht,
    at http://save-endo.cs.uu.nl/. It seems the link "scoreboard" is
    broken , I couldn't
    find any other working contact info. Regards.

  5. Unfortunately, the present organizers have no additional information about previous contests. Please try to find and contact the ex-contest chair. Sorry!

  8. Excellent! In that case, United Coding Team are going to put together another overly massive team. Hope to have some great fun again! :)
