The 2007 Obfuscated Erlang Competition has been announced. "The goal is to write the most obfuscated Erlang program, providing a safe forum for poor coding practices and programming styles. Through this competition, we hope to illustrate some of the subtleties of Erlang and how they can best be used and abused."

Submissions are due on November 2, 2007, with the winners announced and prizes awarded on November 8, 2007 at the Erlang User Conference.
