+    How to submit
+  .announcement
+    %p
+      You <b>must</b> specify the language you are using 
+      in your program header.  You can optionally 
+      specify the task you are submitting to.
+
+    %p
+      The possible language options are 
+      <tt>C</tt>, <tt>C++</tt>, and <tt>Pascal</tt>.
+      The follow are examples.
+
+    %table{:border => '1'}
+      %tr
+        %th{:width => '100px'} C
+        %th{:width => '100px'} C++
+        %th{:width => '100px'} Pascal
+      %tr
+        %td= "<tt>/*<br/>LANG: C<br/>*/</tt>"
+        %td= "<tt>/*<br/>LANG: C++<br/>*/</tt>"
+        %td= "<tt>{<br/>LANG: Pascal<br/>}</tt>"
+
+    %p
+      The server <b>will not</b> accept your submission,
+      if you do not specify the language.
+
+    %p
+      Optionally, you can also specify 
+      the task with <tt>TASK:</tt> <i>taskname</i>.
+      On the first page, the taskname for each task is 
+      shown in parentheses.
+
+    %p 
+      For example, suppose you are using <tt>C++</tt> 
+      to write task <b>mobiles</b>, you put
+
+    %table{:border => '1'}
+      %tr
+        %td{:width => '100px'}
+          %tt <tt>/*<br/>LANG: C++<br/>TASK: mobiles<br/>*/</tt>
+    
+    %p
+      on top of your source code.  
+      If you are using <tt>Pascal</tt> to write the same task,
+      you'll use
+ 
+    %table{:border => '1'}
+      %tr
+        %td{:width => '100px'}
+          %tt <tt>{<br/>LANG: Pascal<br/>TASK: mobiles<br/>}</tt>
