Magenta Deadline Extended to 01/17/10

If you haven't submitted, here's your chance! See below for announcement:

As has sometimes happened in previous years, so many people tried to submit at once on the day of the deadline that some of them could not get through, or experienced random errors.

In order to ease the crunch and allow everyone who has been trying to submit to get their work in, the deadline has been extended to Jan 17, 2010. This should allow the remaining submissions to be spread over a longer time and ease the load on the server, but if you still encounter any sort of trouble, please e-mail support@magentafoundation.org and let us know.

We had been really hoping not to have to extend the deadline again this year, but it looks like life had other plans. So... those of you considering submitting now have a little over two more weeks in which to do it. But we very strongly recommend NOT waiting until the 17th to submit — having so many people wait until the last day is what tends to cause problems.
