I of course LOVE the original idea, but it would be interesting "also" to have a
kind of contest where you build on someone else's code, either for beauty or
rendering efficiency, or problem solving ability.  (Hopefully something a
little more interesting than sorting algorithms).

One example (or a separate contest altogether:) How about a bot **in SDL** that
explores and interacts with an isosurface to find a hidden prize?
