A squeak from the Peanut Gallery

Hello All!

I am glad to see that win32lib has turned into a
community project, as it will no doubt greatly
accelerate the advancement and power of the
library.  This is no slam toward Mr. Cuny; I am
sure he has many more pressing matters than
win32lib!  smile

I would love to help out with the project.
Unfortunately, my current work, my lack of solid
Internet access, and my sheer lack of programming
knowledge in the Windows arena, would make me a
rather unproductive member of the team.

I would like to make a motion as far as the
project goals are concerned, though.  It may be a
good idea to have a goal as follows.  "We will
attempt to maintain the simplicity of use which
Mr. Cuny has thusfar delivered to it, in keeping
with the simple nature of the Euphoria
language."  Or something like that ... I'm not
the best orator in the world.  Basically, work on
the idea that the end user will have less
programming experience than you.

This I ask for those out there like me who are
fifteen years behind the "C" crowd.  I'm
currently learning C++, so I understand a tad-bit
of the Windows code, but not near enough to
access any dll's.  I'm sure that there are many
out there like me, perhaps quite a few.  Hence
the original appeal of win32lib.ew -- I could
just read the documentation and pop open a
window, without having to worry about getting my
hand stuck in the gears.

I'll be looking forward to reading about
progress.  Good luck and happy hunting!
