The first-ever coding contest focused on software from Microsoft's Shared Source initiative kicked off May 23. The competition, sponsored by Microsoft and hosted by WindowsForDevices.com, challenges developers to use Windows CE Shared Source in a real-world project and offers Xbox 360 game console prizes.
Developers are invited to "create a cool, real-world project that combines Windows CE along with either or both of two Shared Source componentsthe Windows CE WebCam driver and/or the Windows CE DVR engine," the contest's home page says. Entrants must submit their projects for judging by midnight PDT on July 28, and winners will be announced on WindowsForDevices.com after August 15.
