Last I checked the challenge had 6000 plus people signed up. If I was the person who had to review and respond to all tasks submitted by folks who are taking the challenge that is 6000 plus emails which to me is daunting, and there is NO way I will be able to balance work+life+responding on time to tasks so my 2 cents is as keep this in mind when you get impatient :)
I learnt the hard way, little 'always' but always does respond it may not be immediately as we would like but little will respond as and when time permits him/her to do so.On Tue, Dec 16, 2014 at 12:21 AM, <Valdis.Kletnieks@xxxxxx> wrote:

The problem is that although there's some scripting involved, it's not anywhere
near 100% automated - there's still a lot of human intervention needed.
(Basically, you can write a script that can tell definitely that somebody
got it totally wrong - but you can't always get a script to tell that
somebody got it right, especially for more complicated assignments.
Looking for the output of 'printk("Here is the magic string expected");'
is easy - checking a more complicated thing like screwing around with sysfs
is a bunch harder...
