Contest Rules

Soon as I put together an official release I will post the rules in the meantime this is just a recap of my blog post on what the contest is all about

One might assume the Pie in jQPie is for PHP interface extension and well when I first came up with it that was the thought.

Now I have slightly larger goals, the Pie represents the slices of code I hope to pack within. Currently there is a php5 slice, and another person has shown some interest in working on a php4 version.

Now I am looking for you! Yea you there the one looking at jQPie thinking it would be cool to use but your knee deep in Python, or Perl, or any other language.

The end goal? To work together to create 1 single javascript library and basic API model with the code to power it across as many languages as possible.

To promote this idea I plan to offer cash 3 prizes, 1 for Python, Ruby and 1 for perl to the first person in each who provides the best complete working library and example code that follows the same general usage format as the current php version. The code must be heavily documented, commented and signed over to the project/me but original credit will remain.

This should happen sometime in the next month soon as I finalize a few things and put out a real release/download that can be used as the target. At that time I will put out specific details and the prize amount, I was thinking $100 each, the library really is pretty simple and I have been learning a bit of python lately hacking up trac don't think it should be to hard to do.
