    Enrico's questions for the DPL candidates

    Enrico has asked the candidates quite a few questions this year via his blog. To be honest, Enrico, I think you'd be better off posting your list to the -vote mailing list - that way the questions and answers will be seen by everybody looking for them, and they'll be archived.

    Hi Steve,

    those questions are not really intended to be serious and I didn't post them to -vote so that candidates wouldn't have to waste time answering them.

    If you do feel tickled by some of them, however, please feel free to pick it up and answer.

    For further DPL training resources, last night we even made a polygen grammar to generate questions to the DPL candidates:

    http://www.enricozini.org/store/dplquestion.grm

    To use it, download it and run "polygen dplquestion": this will generate a new question every time :)

    This all came out because I was seeing all sorts of questions being asked and I was wondering if we wouldn't come to a point where people are just trying to see if they could come up with a question that no one else has asked before.

    Plus, I wanted to do something to prevent *myself* from starting to ask questions just for the sake of showing that I could come up with original questions as well ;)
