<div dir="ltr">The competition part is really a reward for participation (aside from a cool experience, and what I hear will be amazing catering). Another reason not to list the prizes is that apps developed just to get a prize will generally not be as useful as prizes developed to scratch a recognised need (or personal itch).<div>

</div>I think they will announce them on friday night when they announce the<br>
competition categories.<br>
<br>
perhaps part of the issue is that they don't want anyone to have head<br>
start on others, because its a competition...<br>
<br>
its just a shame cause thats not how free software and open source works ;)<br>
<br>
