My thoughts:

In regards to the idea of a separate keyboard competition, running that separately may not be all that bad, as both OSC 4 and 5 saw less that a dozen keyboard entries each. Unfortunately, spinning it off into its own contest probably won't fix the problems seen in OSC 4 and 5 with finding a sufficient number of decent judges.

I think getting penalized for ignoring the rules makes perfect sense.

I would support the idea of merging the DDR and ITG brackets, but I do have a question: Currently, people can enter two pad files, one in each bracket. If the brackets get merged, can people still enter two pad files?

I was looking forward to OSC 5's Solo chart challenge round, but missed it because I simply didn't get an entry made for OSC 5 in general, so I would certainly be interested in seeing a Solo round recur in the future.

In regards to rolls, I do believe that the current 'official' release for Stepmania is still 3.9 rc4, which does not support rolls. Although I believe rolls can add to a file when used well, I think it might be wise to ban them from the tournaments until they are supported by a version of Stepmania that does not require a CVS build.
