体会RailsDay 2006 的游戏规则中的小团队规定

你开发的程序都符合下面的规定吗?
当然你可以不公开代码!
符合又意味着什么呢?

RULE 01
Ruby on Rails. Twenty-four hours.

24小时

Each application must be developed using Ruby on Rails between 12:00am Eastern Daylight Time on June 17th and 11:59pm EDT on June 17th. This includes all digital mock-ups, identity design, XHTML, CSS, Flash, Javascript, etc. (Therefore, use of website design templates (like OSWD is not allowed.)

You are of course permitted to determine the concept of your application before the competition. Paper mockups of the user interface and database schema are also allowed before the competition.

RULE 02
No more than three per team.
不超过3人的团队


Each team may be comprised of one to three people. To be eligible to participate, all team members must register at least 48 hours prior to the start of the competition.

RULE 03
We’ll provide Subversion.
工具svn,必须要会

All applications must use the official Subversion server. You will receive access information for Subversion the day before the competition. To be eligible for judging, you must commit to your Subversion repository at least 10 times during the competition period.

Unfortunately, we will not be able to provide development servers for use during the competition.

RULE 04
Plugins are kosher. No Engines.
不让用引擎, 插件还接受, kosher是proper的符合犹太律法的仪式的(meat)

Rails plugins are allowed if they are on this list. Use of Rails Engines is not allowed.

RULE 05
Gems are brilliant.
ruby库随便用, 用gem取到的都没问题

Ruby libraries are allowed if they are publicly available, they areinstallable via Gem from the official Gem server, and they do not make use of Rails itself. The official list of acceptable Gems will be generated at 11:59pm on June 10th and posted here shortly thereafter.

RULE 06
Third-party Javascript libraries must be on The List.
第三方的Javascript必须要在列表里

In addition to Prototype and Scriptaculous, third-party Javascript libraries may be used provided they are on this list, which is now final.

RULE 07
Judges will use Webrick and MySQL.
裁判将用webrick和Mysql来检查成果

Judges will run the applications in production more on their machines using the Webrick web server. If your application requires a database, it must run with MySQL 4.1 and include comprehensive migrations.

RULE 08
The web is at your service.
没理解这句的含义

Your application may make use of any publically accessible web service, provided the code to access it is either developed during Rails Day or meets the requirements for allowable libraries/plugins as specified in Rules 4 and 5.

RULE 09
Everyone will see your work.
公开代码

Applications must be licensed such that the code can be viewed publicly. Following the end of the competition, the files in each team’s repository will be available to the general public. (This does not require applications are under an Open Source license.)

RULE 10
The three C’s and the two U’s.
代码 完整性 创新 3c

用户界面和总体可用 2u

Judges will evaluate each entry based on code quality, completeness, creativity, user interface, and overall usefulness. Once determined, the results of the competiton are final.

All rules subject to change blah blah. Pretty please

如果符合的话，你肯定可以参加明年的比赛了，开玩笑
