This is a great idea -- can't wait for the next competition (I'm ready to demonstrate myself)

Do read the fine print though. Usually you sign away all rights to your algorithm and source code. You might be OK with it, but just be aware of what you sign and for what kind of compensation (not necessarily monetary).

There are four active competitions going on right now -- you could try one of those. Good luck!
