Thanks for taking the time to bring it up. I agree with you that it would be a swell idea to do it around SC09...and if they don't, maybe insideHPC can. Might be fun.

And from the Rules verbiage: "2. ELIGIBILITY: This contest is open only to teams of 1 to 3 currently-enrolled, full- or part-time, undergraduate or graduate, university or college students, who are the legal age of majority in their country, province or state of legal residence and residents of Denmark, France, Germany, Italy, Poland, Russia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom." Maybe there will be a follow-on contest for U.S. students around SC09. This looks like a great contest, but it’s important to point out that it’s only open to European students, per the web page:
