Congratulations to Sven (Jumbo author) for winning the tournament.

Thanks to those who took an interest.
The broadcast was well-supported, with good sharing of programming ideas.

[Sven]

Thanks Graham. It does not happen too often that Jumbo wins a tourney so I am glad about this result!

This is still the old Jumbo from last year, and I also did not produce anything new in the meantime due to lack of spare time ... Don't know when this will change - we'll see.
