Nice big prize pool, it should attract some good devs. Franxis says he has something special planned, it will be interesting to see what it is.

I'm posting this on "News Zone", hoping it will make it to the front page. To the mods: feel free to delete this thread afterwards (I was going to report this thread to get it moved to News Zone but the warning on the report form suggested it was not ok to do that...)

I might actually sit down this weekend and try to finish off some things I've had lying around for a while...

I don't mean to be whiny but I submitted this to the News Zone four days ago and it still hasn't been approved. There's been no shortage of Pandora news in the meantime. Since it's a "reminder" it'd be good for it to reach people who are working on something for the contest.

We have a list of members, and are now just waiting for ED to take action.

As far as the paypal account goes, did you put ((at)) on their to avoid formatting issues or is the actual account ((at)) instead of '@' ?

You have to change ((at)) to @ (in fact, I think all personal paypal accounts are also valid emails, but I'm not sure).

Well GP32Spain isn't a Pandora community, so they have no obligation to post Pandora news.

GP32x is a Wiz/Pandora community, but Wiz news doesn't get approved as quickly. But this is being seen to as we speak.

I'm sure they'll be changing the name to PandoraSpain any day now.

What the hell does other communities possible flaws have to do with this issue? Rethorical question. I dont expect an answer. But it is good to know what to expect should you get more power here then you already have.
