Only the first instance of any given regression is eligible to win a prize, as determined by the timestamps on entries. To see a list of regressions already accepted as valid entries for the contest, please visit the Regressions Challenge status page. Entries will be added to this page as soon as practical after they have been validated. In addition, entries that duplicate regressions already found by Sun or the community and entered into Sun’s bug database will also not be eligible, even if they are from versions of Java SE prior to J2SE 5.0.
