Re: So I'm jumping into the CoApp with both feet...

 

Hi Nasser.

I too am really enthusiastic about this project.

My experience in a number of OS project tells me that particlulary in the early stages, consensus is a lot less important than a central conviction to progress. Firm quick decisions by the Boss are the most important aspect to getting it off the ground.

The key to any successful OS project is having a core of paid workers making releases. The rest of us just hang around the side making micky mouse contributions and pretending to be important. I am happy to offer TurboCASH as a downstreaming realtionship delivering though CoAPP. TurboCASHhas 100 000 users in 80 countitres, who currently get their updates through a rather crude process at sourceforge. I am willing to try your system from its earliest crudest releases.

Tell me what to do next...

This is just a little hello (as evidence of being human) and an extremely brief intro.

I've been a relatively silent discussion member on Subversion (SVN) since before their 1.0 milestone, and am primarily a VB/VB.NET <http://VB.NET> developer (whenever I actually program). I've used InnoSetup and NSIS install scripts, in addition to MSI packager tools. PowerShell, for one, is a very powerful environment for the Windows platform.

I would like to contribute by helping guide/outreach other VB.NET <http://VB.NET> developers who would ostensibly target the CoApp environment. Although C/C# are the languages for CoApp, there will always be other .NET programmers in the mix.

Cheers.
