That's a very good question... I thought it was not possible to do such 
things with the new threshold, but apparently it is...
However, I believe it would be unfair to change the rules (i.e., 
threshold) now since the contest ends up very soon... What do you all 
think about it ?

Sure. That's still in the pipe... I missed time to do it... We will try 
to implement it for the next version of the contest... Sorry.

I cannot reproduce this problem. I tryed from the graphical user 
interface, but it seems ok...
Beware that the sliders now behave much more accurately then in version 
4.0.20 (this might have confused you).

Thank for the feedback!
Shall we switch to version 4.0.21 for the contest matches ?
Please note that I will be physically away from the server next week (I 
will be at ICRA 2004 in New Orleans), so it might be difficult (but not 
impossible) for me to fix things if something goes wrong...
