[ANN] Report of the Month Contest

2006-01-27 06:44

 

Submit Your Best Report. Win an iPod Nano.

 

Do you have a excellent report you would like

to share? Done something really cool with JR?

We invite you submit your best reports,

screenshots of applications that were developed

with JasperReports, or PDF's of runtime reports.

We are looking for JR reports that showcase all

of the JasperReports' functionality.

Each month a panel of judges will select the best

report, and the winner for that month will receive

a free iPod Nano. The winning reports will also be

posted on our website. All monthly winners will be

eligible to win the JasperSoft Report of the Year

and a Bose Speaker System.

Good luck!

Hi teodar ,

this is a good idea ? would like to clarify , for selecteing the Report of the month wht is the main criteria u look at ?

 

Is it based on the Jasper features used or the look and feel of the UI ?

Hello,

 

I don't think there is a main criteria.

At least not in my case (there are several

judges that participate).

 

You could have a very complex report that uses

many JasperReports features, but the overall

document might not look very good.

Or we might get beautiful reports that are just

simple plain listings.

 

So I would say it is a combination of several

criteria including complexity, use of

JasperReports features and overall look and feel.

 

Thank you,

Teodor

Hi,

 

As one of the judges, my criteria is a report that makes me say "wow" :-) Of course, what causes that will differ from month to month. The first winner (has it been posted yet?) was a complex report but that doesn't mean all entries need to be complex - a simple but concise display of information can win too.

 

For those curious, the judges are sent the output files submitted to the contest without any indication of who submitted them, where they came from, etc.
