Two more Weeks left to submit your XPages Code to win $4800

Posted by Niklas Heidloff | May 18, 2012


The OpenNTF XPages development contest sponsored by the IBM business partner We4IT is still going on.

Contribute your open source project between now and June 3th and have a chance to win $800 for controls and $1600 for full applications.

So far we've received 16 submissions. While there are already quite a lot of controls, there are relative few applications. Applications contain all functionality end users need to fulfill certain tasks. Applications can/should provide configuration options but must not require developers to write code to use them.

Here is a list again of potential submissions for the applications category:

- Stream of entries from various social networks (in difference to Wildfire web based)
- Notes chicklets for web as web based navigator to apps
- Analysis tool to track how many certain web pages have been visited
- Notification system if certain Notes documents have changed
- Personal document library federating docs from Dropbox, Connections, LotusLive etc.
- Personal bookmarks federating from Twitter, Connections, etc.
- URL shortener app
- Extensions to the Information Retrieval app, e.g. mobile interface
- Gamification system for XPages apps
- Simple project/team task management app with mobile interface
