Hello world

[Daniel Tudosie]

Hi everyone,

I have been using gnucash for some time and I am satified for now...
furthermore, as I have background in IT development (I have studied
Scheme, I am working as dev in C/C++, etc), I am thinking of getting
involved in the development of this product...

I have been following the user and devel lists for some time for two
reasons: I am interested because my (gnu) money are managed through
gnucash; I am working in a related field (commercial financial
apps/systems).

Ofcourse I would like to help in the effort of porting gnucash to gnome2
(and b/c I am writing to devel list instead of user list I hope the
majority understands the importance of moving gnucash from the tehnical
issues of gnome1 to gnome2 - and hoppefully prevent this kind of
tech-dependancy situations - to more functional issues) but my
experience in developing under linux is some-how limited (and note that
I used the term *experience*). 

So I am asking (for who wants to answer - and not get the same treatment
as the user that started the "giving up on gnucash" thread on user
mail-list) what development env. are you using ? (I am using gnome and I
have installed Anjuta which I am not familiar with; but I am also a fan
of gnu emacs) is there a "dev tips and tricks" section that I haven't
found ?

For the rest of information (e.g. about specific libraries to be used in
develpment) I will either search or ask.

So this is just a friendly "Hello world" message to the dev-list (a more
friendly mail list I hope :-) ).

Best regards,

Daniel
