To bring everyone up to speed....... Kaspar Horst is currently on vacation, and we have been unable to contact him regarding his judging committment. He is not expected back for another 2 weeks. Given his initial enthusiasm for being a judge, and the prestige his participation in this event affords, I'm very keen on having him with us. It may require us to postpone the announcment of the winners from November 30th to December 30th. Nothing is final on this yet, but I just want everyone to know that this _might_ happen. One (very) positive aspect to this would be to avoid the "Christmas Rush" at the Post Office when we go to send out prizes and ribbons. Things have a habit of getting lost at that time of year due to the huge volume of mail that moves through the system over the holiday season - if we postponed the date until the rush is over we can at least lessen the possibility of things going missing. Dave, would this cause any problem for you, as you are the one who will be sending out prizes, potentially early in January?
