You can see screenshots
and watch videos of all the contest entries
on XPages.info.
A huge thank you to the contest judges
Mark Leusnik and the OpenNTF Board of Directors for taking the time to
carefully review and score each of the entries. You can see the judging
criteria on the contest
announcement page.
I would also like to thank IBM's Niklas
Heidloff for driving the success of the fourth development contest
within the community. Ever since I started working with Niklas a few years
back, he has always wanted to have a development contest like this. You
have all helped to "knock this out of the park (again++++)" for
not only the IBM XPages community but for Niklas personally.
As Chairman of OpenNTF I would like
to thank all of the people who participated in the contest and to hedersoft
for their sponsorship. The community
is the ultimate winner here as they now have 23 new assets that can be
used to develop and deliver apps..
