So what happened to the Codeguru Contest Winners Annoucement?

It's on the main codeguru page (and has been for months) - http://codeguru.developer.com/vb

Sorry, I should have been more clear. I was referring to the VC++ contest, which was run, voted one, then promtly forgotten about by Codeguru when Earthweb bought them. I posted this message on a few boards including this VB one, as I have not gotten a reply from anyone about this. I have emailed Codeguru people, with no replies. Look like they just brushed it under the carpet hoping people would forget. I wish if that had been their intent, they would have never posted the contest in the first place. Its called "lying" in my opinion.

I don't think that the contest has been 'forgotten about'. I know things were completely up in the air when EW aquired CodeGuru. Most of the CG staff received contracts from EW that they weren't happy with and the wrangling could still be going on as far as I know.

Zafir is also half-way through a months holiday at the moment, and with just a skeleton crew of staff handling CG at the moment, there's a huge backlog of work building up.
