hi, I'm 23 years yound and a official Debian GNU/Linux developer. Have professional expirience in OOAD C++ programming and would like to contribute to PIPER and package PIPER for Debian GNU/Linux of course :) PIPER is a interesting project for me, because it uses techniques that could be interesting in component based software development in the future. I'm intet to use PIPER at work for our future Linux embedded products in conjuction with our OO software design. We are also looking forward to use CORBA as a common way to offer our software interfaces for the outside world. So we will support windows and other unices too in the future and are looking for a forward-looking concept, and PIPER seams to be one! Expirience in C++, PERL. Familiar with CORBA. Learning Pyhton at the moment. No JAVA knowleadge! -- Raphael Bossek <raphael.bossek at solutions4linux.de> [ICQ #40047651]
