Re: [Web-erp-developers] how to join the project at sourceforge

This is all very interesting history.  See, I didn't even realize that =
webERP evolved from so many steps along the way.  I mean, it makes sense =
though.  I have "engines", etc. now that have evolved with further =
development from my early times too.=20

I also played around with the Motorola assembly.  A friend and I had a =
music studio with computerized 24 track sequencer back in the Atari days =
before practically anyone had seen or heard of that stuff.

    I had an Acorn Electron PC - I was 18 I think -  a cut down BBC =
computer, then a few years later a Sinclar QL - I still have 2 of =
these!!

    Although I have read quite a bit I have no formal training in =
computers bar one course at university. I played with assembly language =
for the Motorola 68008 that was in the QL and played with C - read =
Kernan and Ritchie but never got into it - it was too hard! Had a Pascal =
compiler for the QL too. Only played with little things though.

    =20

    Wrote my first General ledger on the QL with SuperBasic in my 20s.

    The I got into MS Access  and wrote quite a few MS Access databases =
for companies I worked for, finally I wrote a complete accounting system =
upon which webERP is based on the best bits of.

    I then converted this to use MS SQL with logic in stored procedures =
with full MRP. Had a reasonable grounding in SQL Server 6.5

    Linux/Apache/PHP/MySQL caught my attention.

    Like you Rom, I enjoy the logic puzzles presented by programming and =
creating something useful from nothing.

    I started in the computers at the age of 11, when I got my first =
commodore and a MSX. then I went to the Amiga and then at the same time =
to PCs. I started programming basic and logo in the MSX. I got my first =
job programming Borland C developing PDA like devices to the police of =
my country (I was 17 in that time). Then I become passionate with =
Borland C and DOS. Borland C is extremely powerful and I still recompile =
some of my old stuff just for fun using Dos Box and FreeDOS some times. =
I am no computer genius but I can make it work :D and the best of all: I =
have fun doing it. As it is for me know a lot of fun doing this project =
with you guys.
