Re: New Linux Game SDK Project - Please Read This If Nothing Further

[The Greene Family <colskywalker@thepentagon.com>]

Well sir, at this point my goal merely is to assist the person in charge
because I honestly believe they needs it.  The fork idea I thank you for
because I'm going to do it, but I would definitely LOVE to do sound and input, 
It's something I enjoy doing and have experience Doing.

I knew you had CVS and webspace, but would you not prefer penguinplay.hijc.com
to sunsite.auc.dk/penguinplay? I thought it might be easier to remember for the
absent minded among us. (Lord knows i have to visit a site several times before
I remember the URL :-)

By the way I was asking you these questions because you seemed helpful once
before when I asked you some questions. 
Thanks,
Derek Greene
