Hey Net 

Actually it's not the fact that the competition was over. it's due to the fact that the number of applicants exceeded the number of invitations given 2 ITPRO

if he says it's over it's over man...no point crying over spilt milk

if you want to get in, u can post some articles and demonstrate your expertise on Windows Server 2008, i heard that there's another opening but I’m not sure of it

it's sad to see this kind of posts around, it’ll only prevent someone from sharing some great opportunity around us because a post like this never encourages but discourages a person

anyway giving an invitation or not, remains with the person who initiated it, we should not question his decision since choice only remains with him

Also, I wish to convey my appreciation to Ruwan for sharing this with us if it was not for him, we wouldn't have known that "HEROS COMMUNITY LAUNCH" ever existed
