I have 10p you can have. But seriously, I take your point. I was just wondering if anyone had written these things down. I don't mind buying a book, if it comes with a recommendation from the people on this list.

I might be able to scrape together another 10p. Time isn't something I have a huge amount of, either. For now, I'll stick with the learning and write up what I find. <snip> > why don't you take an existing program and make it do something > better, or something that it doesn't already do? your contribution > will be more valuable, you'll learn from the inside out rather than > outside in, and you still get to learn from mistakes (though they may > not be your own). rather than creating Yet Another Tracker, you'll > have done something that can be used by others (and yourself) very > quickly. I think you're right. CheeseTracker wasn't a bad IT clone - I think I'll have a bash at adding a few features to that. Probably a good place to start. Anyone disagree? Thanks > --p >
