The placeholder algorithm should be in the same format as competitors'
final submissions: a zipfile of a single directory containing a Java,
Windows, or Linux DA and its associated files (if it uses any--only
config.xml is required). For example, if you plan on submitting a Lisp
DA compiled for Windows, you should submit this as the placeholder DA
as well.
The only requirement is that it should run properly--that is, if we
extract your DA and run it via ScenarioLoader, it should start up,
send a DA_READY message, and exit properly upon scenario end.
