The results are in! Find photos and additional coverage plus the new 6-minute wrap-up video of the Oski Challenge on the Oski blog, here. Team Verify blog coverage is here.

Formal has come along way but few people have seen formal deliver results in under three days on a new design, sight unseen. Oski proved it could be done in an impressive 72-hour time frame, on camera, live at DAC 2012. DAC attendees and others followed the action live on webcam at the Oski booth, and via real-time updates on Twitter at oskitech.
