I thought Greenkeyers would be interested in this which was brought to 
my attention recently ont he BARTG mailing list.

The Cipher Event.

To celebrate the completion of the Colossus Mk 2 Rebuild
What is it?
To transmit, by radio, by teleprinter, from the Heinz Nixdorf Computer 
Museum in Paderborn in Germany, a series of secret messages enciphered 
on a WW II Lorenz SZ42 cipher machine.

To issue a world-wide challange to anyone to break the cipher settings 
and decipher these messages before the Rebuild of WW II Colossus Mk 2 in 
Bletchley Park does it.

This event is planned for the 15/16th of November. More details at:

Cheers,
Sam
