Hi: I valued this post. I participated (lightly) at a Hackathon a month ago where the were some monetary prizes offered by sponsors at the end of the event. There were two entries that seemed to have a lot of substance for a single day event, so the question tickled in my brain a bit as to whether there was a way to validate the efforts of the team from start to finish.
We have been wondering about the value of using a cloud IDE (disclaimer, I am CEO of Codenvy) as a type of quarantined project workspace that is managed by a 3rd party for the duration of an event, like a hackathon. The workspace would be structured & owned by the organizer and not the hackers. And this way the organizers could place assets like keys into the workspace, and also monitor what code is authored and / or imported into it throughout the duration.
We'd value the community feedback to see if there is value in such an offering. We may want to hack one up ourselves :)
