If you plan to stay in the business as career software developer, then the ability and willingness to retool yourself with new language/OS is a must. Otherwise, you have a slim chance to make a living for yourself and your family. Let me see, Algol/IBM360, Fortran/IBM360, PL/1/IBM360, Pascal/PC, C/Win,UNIX, C++/Win,UNIX,Embedded, Java/* - you get the picture. And this barely covers first 15 years of paid experience. The army of software developers is expotentially growing in east europe, asia, china, india, and here is US and writing new languages has become extremely easy compare to the old days. > > Also my personal interest in Maemo has been Xournal as eveyone knows, > but if porting it to Qt involves learning C++.. brrr... > > -- > anidel > _______________________________________________ > maemo-developers mailing list > maemo-developers@maemo.org > https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers _______________________________________________ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers
