1) December 1st, as the past 2 years

2) He'll be editing the rules and assigning/managing the judging panel. I'll be staying behind the scenes this year

3) planned for launch, likely to fall back on current java unlimited version in a worst-case scenario

Good, Captain will do a good job.

For how long will it goes? I planned to participate, but I'm in the middle of the process of relocating from Brazil to Canada. It takes all my breath and spare time away. If it goes for a long time (more than one month), maybe I'll be able to add a small game to the pool.

I think it is 3 months.  Feb 28 is the final day for entries.

For how long will it goes?

that's up to this year's manager, CaptainJester

but in the past years it has run 3 months, so I don't see why it wouldn't this year

[CaptainJester]

Then it's official.  The contest will start on Dec 1st and run until Feb 28th 2007.

captainjester? rules please? judges? etc?

anyway, site is a given. one click of a button and J4K 2007 appears on the Java Unlimited site.

old Java Unlimited site is going to be used until I deploy the new one with the recently added "news" section (see the thread over in General Discussions)

[CaptainJester]

Since it is already Dec 1st somewhere in the world, the 2007 Java 4K competition begins now.

Will post a complete set of rules in the next couple of days.

I will find between 3 and 5 judges over the course of the competition.

Woogley, go ahead and flip the switch on Java unlimited and let the games roll in.

By the way, I guess we will use timezone for the JGO servers for the official deadline.  They are in California, right?

Good luck and good coding.
