You could try something similar to Alice. It's kinda sad coz Alice is available only for Mac and Windows so something similar for Linux??

Spoj is good enough, no need to repeat.

Location based content listing is the concept that can read the current location built on location based services. Here we intend to implement location based services for using with the organizer of a JAVA enabled mobile phone.The organizer will display the details stored in the mobile phone which are specific to that location. The basic idea of the project is to create an application for mobile phones which displays the contents like address book,details of contacts, reminders etc based on the location in which we are currently based. for example, if i am in a place 'abc city', when i use this application, the details of t contacts present in 'abc city' in my phone have to be displayed. And when i move to another location say 'xyz city' then the details of contacts present in 'xyz city' has to be displayed. One can also view the list of works to be done at that particular location. We would like to know if the project can be done as a mobile application using JAVA or if Symbian has to be used. Also, since all these features can be easily obtained using GPS, we want to create an application which does not use GPS.

SPOJ is not open source

SPOJ is not open source

Spoj is free for usage and its good enough. IMO it wouldn't matter much if it was open source and we probably dont need to redo all the efforts those guys did.

If an open source alternative were there, there would be one stable distribution that can be downloaded and run on any campus intranet. Writing secure code is time consuming and requires the communitiy. I guess Mooshak is a good open source one. Looks are bad but can be customized though

I think conducting a good contest just doesn't depend on having good online judge software, you need lots of external configuration, network related things. I believe if you can host a contest on SPOJ, why would you want to host it on your own servers. Least configuration is involved and your contest is up and running .

Well, a good algorithm tutor which serves the interest of the user might be a good one. For Eg. For all problem types, graphically show how the algo works for some sample problems, then get the user to solve additional problems of same type and varying difficulty( maybe within the app or on other OJ's). Show comprehensive statistics on which areas the user needs to improve(can be a pop up on start). Also can connect to a central server for updates on latest programming contests/problems which can be fed dynamically. The perfomance in the contests can be updated by the user, which can show his temporal improvement in perfomance. The app should be platform independent.Just an Idea

Why can't we have something other than online judge ?

I think people are completely diverting from the issue we need to make a project that can really help people. Recently there was a project from MIT named Sikuli ( groups.csail.mit.edu/uid/sikuli ) this sikuli helps in visual programming for general tasks like configuration and administration. what we need in this scenario is a frame work like this where we can create scripts that helps small children learn specific tasks in unsupervised conditions. say for example we create a script that gives a frame of how to use the Microsoft office

spoj is already there as an open source…!!

I got to
d3 gold this blog from Facebook (buy d3 goldone of my friends posted it). After reading,

Hello , Has this initiative culminated into anything . Its a 3 year old thread . I am new to CodeChef , and really love it . I think an open source project of educational value to underprivileged , whatever it is , would be a superb idea .

Hope this thread gets revived . Lets do some brainstorming .

Alice is available for Linux http://alice.org/index.php?page=downloads/download_alice3.1
