With this contest OpenNTF and We4IT want to increase the number of XPages open source controls to help with the adoption of XPages. Stefan Sucker, CEO, We4IT GmbH, emphasizes that "XPages will soon be the key development model for applications based on IBM Lotus Domino. Providing more core controls and modules is important to build web and mobile applications rapidly." Bruce Elgort, OpenNTF chairman, said: "OpenNTF's first development contest is something I am truly excited about. There are so many cool XPages apps and custom controls being developed that it seemed like an excellent opportunity to establish some type of contest that rewards developers for their efforts. I would like to thank We4IT as our inaugural corporate sponsor for the contest."

We ask participants to contribute re-usable XPages controls to OpenNTF. Re-usable controls are often custom controls with parameters to configure them and use them in different contexts. Good examples are the login control from Ferry Kranenburg and the Dojo based charting control from Julian Buss. Re-usable controls also need to be documented to make them consumable by other OpenNTF developers, especially it needs to be documented which design elements to copy to use the controls in other NSFs.
