spend more than 10 years on hard making it, could organize contest to
encourage people to explore flexibility of this tool in various fields.

I do not understand "sour grapes" in the above sentence, sorry. I do not
understand all the phrases available in english. And I do not understand why

Go in peace and do not destroy the happy time of the awarded povers then.
There is so many contests in the world I want to participate but I don't
because I do not meet their audience, requirements or timelines. I can give
you urls to them if you wish. Find your place youself and allow others to be
happy :-)
