NO do not judge it by that but judge the fact that there is no function for
the user in Writelog to define a contest. This is another example of why it
is needed and I would rather see that the next thing done before any other
enhancement. Would it not be nice to be able to use a gui to just define the
contest. I realize it is likely to be a significant programming effort but I
am willing to pay a few bucks more once it is done and I bet others would
too.

It would also be the end for such as TRLOG if this existed so many new users
would be the result.
