I've gathered some links to information related to previous ICFP programming contests. This years competition starts at the end of this month. Writeups on last years competition form a couple of teams: http://cristal.inria.fr/ICFP2001/prog-contest/links.html http://www.digitas.harvard.edu/usemod/bin/wiki?IcfpProgrammingContest http://www.hoult.org/~bruce/dylan-hackers.html http://www.bluetail.com/~luke/icfp2001/ Bruce Hoult did a write up before the results were known on what he thought of some of the entries: http://www.hoult.org/~bruce/myScores.html Previous years competition tasks and notes: 2001: http://cristal.inria.fr/ICFP2001/prog-contest/ 2000: http://www.cs.cornell.edu/icfp/ 1999: http://www.cs.virginia.edu/~jks6b/icfp/ 1998: http://www.ai.mit.edu/extra/icfp-contest/ A link to the actual tasks for the years are: 2001: http://cristal.inria.fr/ICFP2001/prog-contest/task.html 2000: http://www.cs.cornell.edu/icfp/task.htm 1999: http://www.cs.virginia.edu/~jks6b/icfp/problem/problem.html 1998: http://www.ai.mit.edu/extra/icfp-contest/task.html   2:44:24 PM

The Dylan Wiki has a recent changes RSS feed. 9:02:01 AM

There is now a Wiki devoted to the Dylan Programming Langauge. Peter Housel writes on comp.lang.dylan: The Dylan Language WikiWikiWeb, http://monday.sourceforge.net/wiki/, is now online.  A WikiWikiWeb is a collaborative web-based forum consisting of pages that anyone can edit.  Hyperlinks to pages are created just by mentioning the topic with a "WikiName", inviting someone to create the page if it does not yet exist. Right now the Dylan Language WikiWikiWeb contains only a few "seed" pages.  With your help these can be filled out more completely, making it into a forum containing information about the Dylan Language, Dylan implementations, available Dylan libraries, frequently asked questions, and other resources. 8:58:30 AM
