Open Source

Develop free software. Free as in freedom of speech.

The idea behind this is to gather developers around a project ( or more ) so that we can all learn from each other and grow as individuals but also as a team.

Personally i would like to see a project started around Qt and boost, a project developed using modern C++. I do believe that C++ is here to stay, and with great libraries such as Qt & boost will play a very important role in the IT industry in the future ( as it did in the past and as it does today ). I would prefer to use C++ for the open-source projects that hopefully we will develop here as I've seen that a developer that masters C++ will have no problem adapting to higher level languages such as Java,C#,ruby. Also understanding the principles behind modern C++ and object oriented programing will help creating quality software in any language or platform.

Last but not lest C++,Qt and boost are all portable on all major platforms and compilers. I don't like to develop for a specific platform when i have the possibility to develop for all of them.

I'll post in the Projects section of the weblog some ideas i have about projects i would like to see started.
