Here's your chance to show off your web scripting skills and win an Apple 16GB iPod Touch. Submit your best work to our first ever Alfresco Web Scripts Developer Challenge. The competition is open to all Alfresco community members and you may enter as many web scripts as you like.
We’ve had an overwhelming response to the competition but several of you have asked if we could extend the submission date to give you a little bit more time. To be fair to those who are able to meet the end of March deadline, we'll keep the deadline as is but we'll also add monthly winners for the next five months.
Here is how it will work: we’ll award an Apple iPod Touch in April, May, June, July and August. The deadline for each month is the last day of each preceding month. We’ll announce the winner during the second week of each month.
