I’d like to proudly introduce the L PRIZE.
The L PRIZE is a new and exciting open competition that will be officially
launched at SIGGRAPH 2004 by an independent team led by Tim Courtney. The
purpose of the L PRIZE is to reach both the established LDraw community and
the broader 3D software developer and user communities, and to draw on this
greatly expanded pool of resources to build a unique convergence of interests
and abilities that will result in significant advances to LEGO CAD
technologies.
The L PRIZE will foster advances in LEGO CAD technologies by stimulating
competition and bringing the contestants and the user communities together.
Users and developers will be able to converse with contestants, providing
them direction, wish lists, and advice that they can apply to their contest
entries; thus increasing the overall value and impact of the end result.

Dumb question, but what is the competition about? Writing new Lego CAD
software?
Thanks,
Gary

Yes.
I’ll see to it that the website indicates that more clearly. The full website
will spell out specifics of the competition in detail, once the contest launches
in August.
Thanks for your interest.
