What kind of BeOS programming are you interesting in ? If it's GUI apps and getting the basics, you should come to the Pref Team. http://obos.gravity24hr.com/ http://gravity24hr.com/forums/index.php?c=3 There is also an IRC channel called #prefchat (on the same server as #openbeos) - where I've run online programming tutorials with new coders on the team. That, coupled with a few key mailing lists and just studying the BeBook are usually enough :) Cheers Sikosis OBOS Pref Team Leader http://g24.com.au/cvsmon/ > > > Quoting Jared Eldredge <jared@xxxxxx>: > > > > > > Good or Bad idea to send emails to university computer science > departments > > > > > asking if they could contribute to the kernel ?
