I think this is a cool idea.
My only concern would be, whether cross-platform and version issues, which are obviously still being sorted out by some of us, might be a problem. What happens if someone who is judding six entries, can't run three of them for some reason?

How would you propose the vote? By a panel of veterans? By the whole list?
i don't know yet. a jury of veterans would throw up the question who is a veteran and who is not and would prevent those veterans from taking part in the competition. i'd rather suggest some kind of community-vote; taking it out on the list might generate a lot of traffic though. a good solution might be a series of (closed?) polls on a page like puredata.info, but i don't know if that's possible.

i did not include an externals category into my suggestions, for they are often too diverse and specialized to compare.
