Good Job!

I've been thinking: since there are some people already working on the Angry Tux game, shouldn't we try and contact them and... well, join them?
There's no point starting a whole new project when there already IS one. Why not join forces?
Strength lies in unity, after all!

I don't know.
They are using C++ (Entirely different from python), and we are using Python.
There was a fork somewhere in Angry Tux, which then we took two different languages.
I have (currently) no knowledge of C++, except the syntax.
Maybe the C++ guys could make some libraries for the game, but I think they have already started making the game.
I think that for now, we should just continue, and see whats going to happen.
What do you think?

look at how many <insert app/game of choice> there is for Linux, we're just adding to the diversity.
i know i bit about python but i do run a web dev business so project admin is something i do a lot of.

Great job with the thread, lkjoel.
If you need ANY Python help, let me know. While I'm still learning, I may be useful.

I just can't understand how to use Git.
Can anyone help me?
== EDIT ==
Nevermind, I finally got it.
It's quite simple, and very similar to SVN.
