Hi, Firstly, please excuse this massive cross post. Those who aren't familiar with each other... Association of C and C++ Users, this is Fedora Fedora, Association of C and C++ Users Association of C and C++ USers, this is Mono Mono, Association of C and C++ Users. I'm sure Fedora and Mono know each other ;-) Every 2 years in the UK we have a fund raising event called Comic Relief[1]. Comedians, singers and generally everyone gets together to raise money which is used for grass roots programmes (in other words, they build the infrastructure, teach people to be self-sufficient etc) in the developing nations around the world as well as at home (home being the UK). Next year is one such year and in a moment of insanity, thought it would be kind of cool to not only raise money for Comic Relief but also have a world record attempt for the most number of programmed hours in a day[2]. The idea is this. Everyone codes for an hour on a project and gets sponsored for this hour. I'm sure any coder worth their salt can spare an hour in a day for this and even if the sponsorship is in pennies, if enough people do it, then pennies mount up to pounds. Put it this way, if 744 do this then that will be the equivalent of a months programming in a day. If they each raise 10UKP, that becomes 7440 UKP raised - all for just working for an hour!!! I'm not sure yet of the full details (all work on one project, submit to svn etc), but would certainly welcome ideas. I will now return you to your scheduled things.
