Mistake in source code attribution
I made a mistake in attribution of one module of my "Rectangle Tiling" submission, and I wanted to bring this to the attention of the judges in the interest of fairness. The modules Allocator.cpp and Allocator.h were originally developed by me for my company and a third party. Later they were released by the third party under LGPL here: http://oss.extendthereach.com/svn/repos/explorer/geocoder/trunk/global/BulkAllocator.cpp
Closing Date for Master Level Problem 2, Tiling Rectangles, extended to 12:00pm Noon, Pacific Daylight Time, Monday, June 6, 2011.

An interesting problem
Has anyone considered this problem ? For arbitrary input set with length of n ( i.e. n squares), what is the upperbound for the number of different results ?
How do I submit my entry?
I'm ready to sumbit my entry, but I'm not sure how to do it.
The first question is whether I have to submit just the executable, just the source code or both.
My solution is implemented in a VS2010 32 bit console application.
Please advise.
Output formatting and whitespace
Will the judging ignore differences in output whitespace (padding, etc) in the grouped integer lists, and/or padding at EOL?
large dimension test
The attached file tests dimensions >= 2^31 and also tests combinatoric factors.
Exact output sample
Perhaps I missed this, but it would be really nice to have the setsin.txt and rectout.txt available as files so we don't have any ambiguity around whitespace and such. I've attached a copy/paste from the website; should we use this as a template?
