This month we decided to continue distributing servers to the best projects in the opinion of the habrasoobschestva. We took into account the mistakes and blunders of the previous action and offer updated rules.
Timing
- Submission of applications begins with the publication of this article and ends at 23:59 GMT 12.23.2013.
- 12.24.2013 we will publish a vote with the selected applications. Voting will last three days from the date of publication.
- Approximately, on December 28-29, we will provide access to the winners and publish the results.
Conditions
This month we will issue 3
Intel Xeon E3-1230 / 8GB DDR3 / 4x1TB SATA2 / 100Mbps Unmetered servers in DC EvoSwitch (Netherlands) according to the voting results. Unlike last month, whether or not to issue additional servers at our own discretion, we will decide when we receive all applications.
A prerequisite is the availability of a working prototype, for which, by its scale or specificity, hosting cannot be indispensable. If you have a lot of ideas, you just have to sit down and program ... sit down and program to get to our next competitions.

You can submit an application here in the comments, to me in a personal or to our email admin [Canis familiaris] ua-hosting.com.ua (in the topic, please indicate: Habrakonkurs; for this word, applications are filtered and carefully stored in a separate folder). When applying, as in the last time, you must specify
all of the following:
- Project name;
- general idea and current state;
- what do you see the benefits of your project, what is its purpose;
- Whether the project is planned to be commercialized, and if so, how and in what time frame.
By submitting an application, you agree, in the event of a victory once a month, to provide us with a short report in free form on how the equipment issued to you is used and how the development of your project is progressing. We want our equipment to benefit, not just consume electricity, and such reports are the only way for us to make sure of this. We reserve the right to refuse to provide free services in the event of misuse or equipment downtime.
Servers are provided for 3 months for potentially commercial projects and 6 for a priori non-commercial. After this period we will go on a dialogue and define a further form of cooperation.
All participants of the last competition who have not received prizes can apply for this competition. However, we do not recommend submitting applications to those who, by a vote, scored many drawbacks (however, we do not limit you in this right).
And yes the server will arrive with you.
UPD .: Extend the deadline for receiving applications.
