This is an announcement of a competition of sorts, in which you would write a short game in WINTERMUTE, then see it hosted in an online gallery, tour various exhibitions, and possibly get pressed to CDROM.
The trick is, there is a short timeframe involved. Eight - ten weeks. If you wish to challenge yourself and take up this task, get all the details here:

This is an exciting project that combines arists, writers, and game developers to one common purpose. Also, it has the potential to combine game developers of both text only and graphics varieties, which doesn't happen too often...I'm on the text side of the fence myself, so this forum is pretty unfamiliar territory to me.
Here is the original announcement over at rec.arts.int-fiction:
