Alas, non-US members of this key Palm OS developer community are not
eligible to run for this award, the rewards or the recognition. Did
anyone say "global economy"?
Yes, but contests tend to be governed by lots of rules, making it
difficult to legally run a contest that crosses country boundaries.
When I was with PalmSource in late 2004, we were going to do a developer
contest at the Euro DevCon, but the laws in Germany were too
restrictive, so we ended up cancelling it.
This is not a raffle with a quizz math question, its a competence
contest. I wonder how they can manage to give Nobel prizes to
foreigners... Americans are not excluded, AFAIK.
And if sending a US check abroad is too complicated, just use PayPal ;)
