Re: [buckminster-dev] New to Buckminster

Hi Matt,
it sounds like we have a lot of common objectives and we would of course welcome your efforts. From
the sound of it, your aim just right. Let me know what I can do do help get you started.
Kind Regards,
Thomas Hallgren

Hello,
I would first like to mention that I’m interested in contributing
whatever I can find the time to contribute to this project; I had just
(a couple of weeks ago) begun a project that aimed to do what this
project has already done (for the most part) before I knew about
Buckminster. My least favorite thing about programming is trying to
resolve dependencies for complex projects, and as far as I’m concerned,
it’s worth the effort to make it such that I can just run a command and
have that step done for me. I really like how you are approaching the
problem (although I can’t get anything other than the sample to work
myself, but that’s a problem in implementation [ which I would like to
help with ], not the idea behind it :) ).
If it’s ok if I help you guys out, the first thing I’m interested in
helping with, just to get acquainted with the project, is by doing
whatever I can to help smooth out some rough edges in the documentation.
This, I thought, might help me understand everything better, and it
would give you someone to test code coverage, as I’m going to try
everything out before I document it. I would then help as much as I can
with the debugging, which would also help me get acquainted with the
code (and, more importantly, the group). After that, I hope to be in a
position to contribute a bit more, if it is desired of me.
If this is desirable, let me know, and I’ll get to work; conversely, if
you wish for me to stay out of the way, that is fine as well :).
Thanks,
Matt Hollingsworth
