I'm a software developer and I'd like to try to make a contribution to this project.
Thanks!
I really hope someone will help this guy. And every guy who wants a technical introduction. If Mastercoin had a representative who work closely for one day bringing people up to speed - it would encourage more developers to work. We don't want willing devos to get frustrated by the steep learning curve.
For example, if Zathras puts together a really cool single zip file which has everything prepared so it can be opened as a working Visual Studio project testbed - it would be worth a very huge amount to all holders of Mastercoin.
Please, please, please. Can we get a developer into kit made in .net with all necessary and useful libraries for the beginners to get warmed up and come up to speed? This will double our programmer participation. OK - these guys won't take any lead role, but they will surely build very nice little pieces which integrate with the whole package.
Zathras last instructions were very vague and brief. I know it is not his job to get everyone up and running. But a tiny effort from him (say 2 hours) and newish programmers will save tons of time not searching of the pieces to get started with Manstercoin. Zathras - can you spare two hours time? Please?
Maybe the foundation will vote for a few coins for a programmer's starter kit like this.
