So whenever a new participant submits the name of the dataset , it automatically gets checked with the green-list &amp; there are no gray areas in the competition.</p>\n\n<p>This will also remove the current <em>in-efficient</em> means of submitting the information through a message on a forum thread.

So whenever a new participant submits the name of the dataset , it automatically gets checked with the green-list &amp; there are no gray areas in the competition.\n\nThis will also remove the current *in-efficient* means of submitting the information through a message on a forum thread. I have seen the organizers trying to respond to the same queries again &amp; again. Also for the participant it gives an easy interface to check for green-listed datasets.",
