I would be just fine to see imagemagic as competition entry _IF_ a package for harmattan doesnt exist yet in SDK or community obs repoes, ie application would be new for harmattan. In this case imagemagic harmattan deb already exists so it would not be accepted.
I know that IM is already there I just wanted to give an example of a program with good functionality but only cli. The point is that most cli programs are so easy to port they even just run if you unpack the debian package to /opt. Someone could hijack the competition by submitting 10 such applications that can be "ported" in less than an hour, I don't think it's fair. Building a nice UI on the other hand around IM or unison or rsync etc. is a valid entry imo.
