We add `make clang-format` to the Makefile tree. Add `important disclaimers about contest status` link to `status.html`. Update `years.html` due to recent commit that fixed typo for abstract of 2011/akari. Improve `template/README.md.year` for future IOCCC contents. Ran `make quick_www` to perform the above.

### Encouragement for those who did not win this year
|
||
|
||
We know many of you that submitted to the IOCCC put in a ton of effort
|
||
into your submissions for this year’s IOCCC. We can’t just give out
|
||
awards to everyone. That would mean taking away from the submissions
|
||
that we think are the best and deserve to win.
|
||
|
||
Sometimes, a final round submission might be good enough to be a
|
||
winning IOCCC entry, only to be beaten by a similar, but slightly better
|
||
submission. If you think this happened with your submission, consider
|
||
submitting an enhanced version to the next IOCCC.
|
||
|
||
**PLEASE DO NOT** give up hope! There are some submissions that have been
|
||
submitted with revisions, multiple times before rising to the level of
|
||
a winning IOCCC entry. You might also want to try with a different type
|
||
of submission altogether for the next IOCCC.
|
||
|
||
If you’re not planning to improve and resubmit your non-winning entry
|
||
for the next IOCCC, you’re welcome to publish it.
|
||
|
||
|
||
## On Compiling and running winning entries
|
||
|
||
Some C compilers aren’t as great as they could be. If yours isn’t
|
||
working well, you might want to try compiling with an updated version
|
||
of clang and/or gcc instead.
|
||
|
||
