Looking for help... as usual
I seem to have found myself the only one left on the openlp.org "team." All the folks who have been involved in openlp.org have had to bow out due to external commitments. In plain english (and through no fault of their own) they are too busy to help out.
So, I'm left asking for assistance again. If you're interested in helping out with openlp.org (not just development - things like support, etc), I'd really appreciate your help. You don't need to be a rocket scientist or a rock star, you just need a couple of free hours every week to lend a hand.
Things have been quiet here recently. About 2 weeks ago my computer's motherboard gave in, and I was without a computer for a couple of days while I went about ordering a new one. My computer was 5 years old, which meant that I couldn't just replace the motherboard, I had to replace EVERYTHING.
Otherwise, things are plodding on. I'm busy with a lot of behind-the-scenes work at the moment, which means that there's nothing new, just old stuff made better, but nothing really visible. This work is very necessary though. It builds the base for future features, for everything we want to accomplish with version 1.2. It also means fewer bugs in the system, and more reliable performance, something I'm sure everyone would appreciate.
That's all for now!

I would love to help! I write perl, c, and c++. However, I am not very strong in c or c++. Please use me as you see fit i have 4 steady hours available a week with more depending on the week.

I'd like to help though i'm not familiar with the source code at all. I'm a software developer. I used to code in [visual] c++ until a year ago when i switched to web development. I know a bit of python and coded a little bit in wxPython 2 years ago. (And I really want to see a cross-platform version soon.)

Hi
Just found this site and the program looks great so far! I am a VB.net programmer (2005) and would not mind giving some of my time if posible (Have not been able to find out what you have done this in)
I am currently developing one on my own and may have some valuable input ;)
Thanks Shaun

Hi Shaun,
The current version of openlp.org is written in Delphi. However, the future version(s) is being developed in Python. If you're interested in helping out with development, please pop me a private message, and I'll get back to you.
Raoul.
