I have been waiting for 5 days now since I submitted task 03. I can't believe how slow this script is if all it's doing is parsing the results.
The problem is that although there's some scripting involved, it's not anywhere near 100% automated - there's still a lot of human intervention needed. (Basically, you can write a script that can tell definitely that somebody got it totally wrong - but you can't always get a script to tell that somebody got it right, especially for more complicated assignments. Looking for the output of 'printk("Here is the magic string expected");' is easy - checking a more complicated thing like screwing around with sysfs is a bunch harder...
