[Foundation-l] Re: Pirelli INTERNETional Award

Some editors questionned the fact we could be within the requirements of 
eligibility due to the mention of "multimedia" work.

This is a relevant comment.

However, I would like to insist that Jimbo was contacted directly by the 
organiser of the challenge, and that there should not be problems of 
eligibility, as we were *specifically invited* to submit.
