Hi there!
It's that time of the year 
… This year's edition of the Eclipse Open IoT Challenge just opened, and IoT enthusiasts and developers all around the world are encouraged to build innovative solutions for the Internet of Things using open standards and open source technology.
We have a prize pool of over $5,000, including hardware vouchers for the 10 short-listed best proposals. You have until the beginning of April next year to complete your project, but we ask that you submit your idea before December 7 to officially enter the challenge.
I really hope to see lots of projects coming from the element14 community, and that you guys will be sharing your journey as blog posts here! Let me know if you submit a proposal, or if you need advice before doing so.
