Don't know how many of you saw it, but the Feb 2007 issue of IEEE 
Spectrum announced a contest for home built electronics projects.

"To enter send a brief description of your project and include an 
estimate of how much it cost.  Throw in a photo, a parts list, adn a 
schematic.  Mail them to:  Spectrum/Make DIY Contest, 3 Park Ave., 17th 
Floor, New York, NY  10016-5997, U.S.A.  The entry deadline is March 15, 
2007."

If you win, they do an article about your project in Spectrum and Make. 
  And they fly you out to San Francisco for May 19-20, 2007 for some DIY 
electronics fair. "Maker Faire".

It would be most cool to see gEDA/gaf, pcb, gnucap, icarus verilog, etc 
mentioned in such an article!

Good luck

coughed up way too much money for IEEE dues over the last 18 years)
