Programming Challenges for Mac Developers 47
Carlos Camacho writes "iDevGames, a Macintosh Game Developer's Site has started issuing small programming challenges to Mac developers. The first challenge just wrapped up and the result is two nifty apps. The source code for both apps, and all apps entered into the programming challenges, will be released as open source. The next challenge has added an extra day, so developers have 72 hours. The focus is on creating an application to demonstrate 'A* pathfinding.'"

Maybe that will be their third programming challenge.
This is a great idea. Contests to build up the amount of open source out there are cool. What's needed is a general purpose ladder and scoring system so you can actually rank coders. Very cool.
