5 years exp w/ C/C++ client/server multi-threaded and win32 gui
exp being the main skills.

--> Hi, well let introduce myself, I'm a programmer, 29 y. old,  I have
--> about 6 years of experience working for companies, but not 
--> game ones. So
--> , in short I have project and programming experience in 
--> other fields but
--> not in games. That's mean that I can(if u wish) help with the
--> coordination as I've already done that for other 
--> programming projects
--> for those companies, but I couldn't do it alone as it can 
--> be too much
--> work sometimes for one person.
--> I like the idea,lots sort of thing must be discussed and 
--> agreed before
--> we can even start something, but can be done as other that have made
--> other projects like this. The advise of someone that had 
--> run a project
--> on the web would be apreciated and could be necessary.
--> I have my PC on-line through Cable-modem (almost) 24 hs of 
--> the day 365
--> days a year, so I can setup something for an archive, etc 
--> with the help
--> of people that knows well how to do it. We can also use 
--> another resource
--> instead, it's just an offering.
--> I'don't know much about unix or unix ports. (not much more 
--> than a ls or
--> something like that;)) but I want to learn, so if we go 
--> with this and
--> want to use downloaded utilities(probably unix ports), then 
--> I'm glad on
--> that if someone with knoledge guide us.
--> Right now I'm limited on the OS most of my time as I need 
--> Windows OSs
--> for my work, I want to learn linux though, but if we use my PC as an
--> archive then most of the time it will be on windows.
-->  Well, I think is enough for now, I want to know how many 
--> people would
--> like to participate, and if we have the different skills we need. At
--> least I can cover part of the project coordination skills and C++/C
--> programming skills(by no means I'm a guru). I'm also good 
--> at learning
--> and guiding to learn. Time is another matter, I will be 
--> part time only
--> in this, as I must run my work and a family(That's why I can't
--> coordinate all myself)
--> So, lets see how many people want to be in and which skills we have,
--> then we can ask help or guide from what we want to others 
--> that runs this
--> sort of thing
