This is still open and there haven't been much community involvement
yet.

So, if you have some interest in moin development getting some more
contributors maybe, moin2 being more tested, documented and finished
earlier and some young people having the chance to get into FOSS /
python / moin community (and even winning some prices while doing so),
then please help preparing those tasks.

The tasks are intended for 13..18y olds, so you likely can help with
these even if you are not a moin core developer (and maybe if you don't
know extremely much about moin, you can even better judge about whether
these tasks are suitable for the students).

We (reimar and me) had 2 etherpad editing sessions yet on the task list,
but there is still more cleanup needed.

After the cleanup, the tasks will need to be put onto individual wiki
pages (template exists), so we are ready to bulk upload them at 20./21.
of November. Contest starts at 22.11.2010.

We are expected to have about 100 tasks by then.
