Re: Are C++ contributions welcome?

Before starting, do you have any preference for Qt or Gtk in Git. I feel quite 
confortable with both of them.

Qt . C++ GPL
Gtk+. C - LGPL

The quality is good for both of them

Good that is a really good news because I really like doing front-ends and
GUI applications. I will take care of this.

I don't feel comfortable programing in C and I prefer C++ only because
I have more experience using this one. May I contribute to this
project in that language?.

if you have UI/Win32 experience, a good friendly UI for newcomers to
GIT is something we are lacking. Johannes got started with git-cheetah
a while ago, and there is a similar project called TortoiseHg, either
might be a good starting point.

As Jakub noted, C++ is a reasonably good fit for UIs, and we are
lacking those. We have a fantastic team of people doing C work on the
core of git, and noone on GUIs. So I'd say yes, C++/UI help is
something we need 'round here :-)
