Hello there,
My name is Nikos. I come from Greece.
For quite some time I am trying to find some open source project in order to develop some programming skills. Having spent some time on your site it turns out that you are welcoming beginners too which seems not to be the case for most open source projects (to my humble opinion).
I have worked around 4 months with Java and this is more or less my real experience with coding. Now, i want to get into c++ and this is another reason why I chose your project.
My pc is Ubuntu and I have been using it for quite some time now.
I have never had experience with CAD software before, now I am reading the user manual on the wiki.
I believe I can help with the translations too, even though I noticed that the greek one is already in place, at least 95% of it :)
That's it for now. Glad to find you!
