[$1000 Lasso Rosetta Contest] Last week!
Greetings Lassoers
There are less than 7 days left in the RosettaCode.org contest, as per the web page here;
http://www.lassosoft.com/lasso-and-rosetta-code
http://rosettacode.org/wiki/Lasso
If you go to the site today, you'll see several hundred examples have been added (237, to be exact). This ranks Lasso as 53rd out of 2190 languages identified by the site (http://rosettacode.org/wiki/RC_POP.OUT) - beating out BASIC and Objective-C. Great job, everyone! If no single additional example gets added - the contest has already been a smashing success. It really has added value at many levels for Lasso as a language.
There are still lots of examples still to be completed (~600) - so the contest is far, far from over. It would be great to beat out PHP with only 101 more entries.

We will be doing some draws for prizes at the end of the contest - so please consider adding even a single example! There are still many easy ones - using only a single Lasso tag, I believe - to be added. For example - with a cursory look - (http://rosettacode.org/wiki/Program_termination - [abort]).
Keep at it! The finish line is upon us.
