Hi Diego,

Yeah, I was already wondering about that when it showed up on the gallery. I
didn't realize it was an entirely new program! It would be a shame if this
would the the last Asimov Awards, but I can't blame you. Sometimes it can
feel like shouting in the desert, when everyone seems so caught up with
their everyday lives. Me myself I am suffering heavily from CoCo-projectitis
but also too little time to really dig into something in particular.
However, the past few days being off, I actually got close to the bottom of
some projects.

I don't think I will be able to generate anything before the end of the
year, but I do have some halfway projects that are CoCo-related, but only
run on a modern PC. Since the rules don't say anything about it being able
to run on a CoCo, but only be something for the CoCo community, methinkest
it ought to be legit. ;-)

Cheers,
Fedor
