These are good ideas, Nathan. I've added them to our list of challenges for
future meetings.
You can find the current list by clicking on the "Next SMART Meeting" link
on our news home page. There you'll find what the current challenge is, as
well as the short list to vote on for the following meeting. The links to
the complete lists are posted there as well.

Here are the specific pages for these new mini-challenges.
Line Tracking with Line Breaks:

Time-Accurate Line Tracking:

Walking sumo:
http://www.lugnet.com/org/us/smart/~48/ideas/challenge-019
(this one is actually already one of the challenges we'll be voting on next
meeting for the following meeting.)
Token Finding:
http://www.lugnet.com/org/us/smart/~48/ideas/challenge-038
Another similar mini-challenge to token finding already on the list is
Search and Gather:
http://www.lugnet.com/org/us/smart/~48/ideas/challenge-021
(which is also one of the challenges we'll be voting on!)
Thanks for the new ideas!
If anyone else has other ideas they want to add, please let us know. Post
the ideas here, like Nathan did, or bring them to the meeting. We can also
discuss any of these challenges both here and at the meetings.
