The official start is still a couple of weeks away, although you are free to start working on a bot already. Don't complain if the specifications (or the whole game!) changes though.
My guess is this time the challenge will last about two months. Three months like the last one (Planet Wars) was felt to be a little long by most participants and the one before that (Tron) was a little short in its duration of three or four weeks.
