Flex Developer Derby Deadline Extended

The Flex Developer Derby is your chance to write cool Flex code and win sweet prizes (six chances to win a Xbox 360 and a 42" plasma TV to use it with). The deadline for the contest has been extended to May 31st - more time for you to create one of the winning entries!

TrackBacks
There are no trackbacks for this entry.

No trackback URL. Trackbacks are only allowed via interactive form.

Comments
Great news! Hopefully Beta 3 will allow me to get back into the game a bit. The install limitations in Beta 2 with the Mystic Updater put me off a bit. Ben, any idea of the types of entries that have already been submitted by chance? Just curious...

I know one person that stopped investigating Flex after B2 as it caused a couple of probs and is waiting for B3. (I honestly can't remember his exact issues).

Shame that this competition was only open to North America. Will you be doing a worldwide competition at some point?

Adam, RocketBoots are doing "RocketBoots Rest of World Flex Developer Space Race" :)

But official Adobe worldwide contest would be better of course.

I am extremely happy that they exteneded the date. I am going to be submiting my real estate dashboard. And now I have more time to work on the things I think need work.

I was also kind of peeved that they are limiting it it north america only. It really limits the competition.

Note that the exclusion on non-North Americans is not driven by Adobe. It has to do with federal regulations regarding international competitions and prizes. It's really out of their hands.
