[Pyobjc-dev] Hello & notes about the SourceForge Site

[<ma...@ce...>]

Howdy,

I've very interested in this project. I am not yet a programmer (just starting to learn) but over the years I have become very interested in cross platform programming. Some day I'd like to help with ports too. Primary platforms of interest are UNIX (First Linux, then Mac OS X, then BSD)

As a result of this interest I'm hoping to learn programming languages/skills in the following order:

Python - because it's fast simply and cross-platform
<insert Perl here for other reasons (read: it's what we use at work ;-) >
Python/Tk - cross platform GUI for Python
C - so I can read other's source code and port it to better languages ;-) also I've been told it's a good idea to learn C before ObjC
Objective C / Cocoa / Open/GNUStep - I presume everyone here knows why I'd use those
QT/C++ - again, for porting and also I favor KDE on Linux
And finally Java - again, for porting+

Anyway... this is all mostly dreams at the moment because I'm too busy to actually learn anything very quickly (I have a pretty good start on Python, but Perl interrupted and it's going slowly. I can honestly say I do not like Perl :-/ )

In the mean time this project really caught my attention.

I have taken advantage of the permission given on the project's home page and fixed the link to the Mailman page, and also fixed the CVS instructions. I'll mail it to bb...@co... asap. Should I post it to the list too?

later,

	JW
