Hi Richard, I wish I had known about the extension too.  My apologies about 
your working weekend.

Feel free to use any additional modules in your Round 2 website.  There is no 
requirement whatsoever that your Round2 website only use your module.  But yes, 
the goal of the website in general is to show off what your module does, so 
focusing some part of the website on that purpose is still important.

As for whether to use "competing" modules in your website, I will leave that to 
your discretion.  There is no formal rule here.

Hi everyone,

Wish I'd known there was going to be an extension. I could have had a slightly 
more chilled weekend. Still, good to get it done so I can move on to round two.

I was wondering for the website if we should use other modules too. Obviously 
our own module should be the focus of the site, but one of the strengths of 
Orchard is all the modules that are coming out. That said, it would seem unfair 
to use a competing module. So, I just wanted to check what the consesus was on 
this.

Thanks,

On behalf of the Orchard Team, I want to thank you for your participation in 
the Orchard Module Challenge contest.  It's exciting to watch the entries roll 
in on http://www.orchardproject.net/omc/Contest/Browse!

I would like to give you all an update, specifically about the Round 1 closing 
date.  While looking over the contest entries on 
http://www.orchardproject.net/omc  today, it came to our attention that there 
is a discrepancy in the posted Round 1 closing dates.  On the Submit Entry page 
it says Mar 30, and on the Contest Rules it says Mar 15. This was an 
unfortunate oversight that we need to address in a fair way.
To remedy this, we are advancing everyone to Round 2 today.  You will continue 
to be able to update your module through March 30, when Round 2 closes, for 
final judging,  As a reminder, the goal for Round 2 is to deliver a website 
that makes best use of your module in a real-world scenario. To allow you to 
publish your Round 2 website for judging, we will be provide free hosting 
account information to all contest participants that submit a module to the 
gallery.  That should happen within the next week (stay tuned for an update 
about this on the contest website).

In the meantime, enjoy the extra time to improve your module and have fun with 
this contest.  Thanks again to everyone for participating.... On to Round 2!

If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact me.
