The WCCI '10 Xpilot-AI contest has been cancelled

[David Arroyo]

I don't know if anyone reads this group anymore, but I couldn't find
the e-mail address for the maintainer of xpilot.org, so I'll post
here.

I'm the current maintainer of the Xpilot-AI fork of xpilot.
Unfortunately, my proposal for a WCCI Xpilot-AI contest was declined
by the committee.

This does not mean there will be no contest held in the future;
however, it will not be under WCCI sponsorship. To whomever has access
to the xpilot.org, site, I ask if you may remove the WCCI Xpilot-AI
contest announcement from the 'Community' page.

<shameless plug>
Oh, and if anyone is interested in Xpilot-AI, please feel free to
check out the website at xpilot-ai.org. The mailing list is not
operable yet due to some firewall issues, but you may e-mail me
directly or respond on this newsgroup. I have spent some time
separating the client and server code, as well as removing the
autoconf madness, so if you wanted to begin developing a stand-alone
minimal client, it would be a good place to start, I think.

Sure... You're the first real post here in a long while :) www.xpilot.org
has undergone a revamp with new design and content Winfried Trumper
(thanks Winfried!), but I'm now maintaining it.

I just put up contact information for website and XPilot classic
maintenance at http://www.xpilot.org/about/

Ok, sorry to hear that. I've removed it from www.xpilot.org.

I'm curious to know more, but the captcha on the registration page seems to be broken. Please feel free to respond by email.

I wonder if it is just possible that David Arroyo has moved on in the last
_six years_.
