Animation Deadline

[A.Shane]

I read this on the on the Autodesk rules for the Animation competition

"Entries for either category of the Contest must be received by Sponsor between 12:01 a.m. Pacific Standard Time (PST) on February
17, 2012 and 4:59 p.m. Pacific Daylight Time (PDT) on March 30, 2012 (the ―Entry Period)"

And I was wondering if I read it correctly and the Animation can be submitted anytime between February 17th and March 31st or am I missing something

I just want to make sure I don't dig myself into a quagmire for misreading or something

Thanks in advance
