I really like this Idea.
Here in France a lot of craftsman at the end of their study,
join a contest where they have to produce their 'Masterpiece'.
(And I do believe that in a sense we are a kind of craftsman,
polishing our skills, loving our art...)

More than the contest in itself,
I like the Idea of a 'Masterpiece' that show your works, creativity...
(think about Erudil Camel,japhy production about regex(soon a book!!), BooK obfuscates...).
(I know book isn't a Saint but some of his obfuscates really deserve the 'Masterpiece' title...)

It could only be a good thing that will make Saints wanabee (even) more willingly to enhance and contribute to the monastery.
Not to become a Saint but mostly to be recognized by other Saints.

I know Saints usually tend to oppose to new levels,
But I can't imagine why they wouldn't accept to make us this gift :
Recognition by admired Saints...

I really hope that something will come out of this Idea...
(Even if it means more work for you beloved Saints ;-p )
