We improve the `inc/footer.default.html` file to make
the _Copyright and CC BY-SA 4.0 License_ clear.
We add `license.md` and generate `license.html` (via `make
gen_top_html`) so that key features and terms of the _Copyright and
CC BY-SA 4.0 License_ are accessible.
Add CC BY-SA 4.0 license images into the `png/` directory.
FYI: We use the license to allow the open use of IOCCC entry code,
and at the same time, we help ensure that those working on the IOCCC
have proper Attribution including, of course, the IOCCC winners
themselves! The _Copyright and CC BY-SA 4.0 License_ help ensure
that everyone may enjoy the IOCCC.
Added '#copyright' to all generated HTML pages so that the
_Copyright and CC BY-SA 4.0 License_ may be reached.
Changed `bin/gen-top-html.sh` VERSION from "1.2.2 2024-03-26"
to "1.2.3 2024-04-12".
Fix `bin/gen-sitemap.sh` to remove requirement of `ioccc.tar.bz2`.
Changed `bin/gen-sitemap.sh` VERSION from "1.3.4 2024-03-27"
to "1.3.5 2024-04-13".
Perform `make www sitemap` to perform the above.
We also give a _hint_ as to the next project.
TODO: Complete that next project we are _hinting_ at.
TODO: Review the work being done by a web designer to see
how their work might be incorporated into the web site.
Fourth International Obfuscated C Code Contest
View the index.html web page for the given winning entry for information on how
compile it and how to run the winning program. Look at the winning source and
try to figure how it does what it does! You may then wish to look at the
Author's remarks for even more details.
The rules for 1997 suggested even more categories than in 1986.
Hints for what to do and not to do were also given in the rules.
For example, a simple excessive abuse of /lib/cpp was discouraged unless the
abuse was unusual. The mailboxes for the contest were moved from nsc to amdahl.
The practice of posting a preliminary set of rules for the next year was started
this year.
Rules and results were posted to comp.lang.c and comp.unix.wizards with an announcement in news.announce.important. Micro/Systems Journal published the 1987 winning entries. Mary Ann Horton included a version of the 1987 winning entries in an appendix of her C book Portable C Software International Edition (published under the name Mark R Horton). The first announcement of winning entries at the Summer 87 USENIX was helped by a small fly that danced all over the foils.
