Thank you so much! I'm looking forward to working with you all.
I'm not familiar with IRC, although I've heard the name passed around. If
this list is more active, I suppose I'll stay here. I do appreciate the
ability to spend time crafting a good email response.
In the meantime, I have a few days left of finals before my schedule is
really free. I've downloaded LilyDev (I mainly use Windows, but I have a
couple Raspberry Pi's if it's desirable to test more platforms) and will
give compiling a try at the end of this week. This is all new for me, so I
appreciate your willingness to help me with newbie questions! I'll probably
have quite a few, especially regarding compiling.
Thanks,
Owen
