On the eleventh day of Christmas....

Such is the strength of the 5o5 brand that the Class has been able to attract the very best of supportive sponsors such as SAP.

The book telling the story of the 5o5 is nearly ready for publication, but author Dougal Henshall is letting you help choose a great photo for the cover. Each day we will see one of Christophe Favreau's pictures posted, then at the end readers will be allowed to comment with their vote.
