<div dir="ltr">Well here is my 2 cents:<br>
<br>
>From my experience you are going to have problems finding developers<br>
for two reasons. First being that you have only really tinkered with<br>
Linux that means you probably have contributed to any other projects<br>
and secondly because of your (possible) lack of development support<br>
for other projects, developers would want to see a code base that they<br>
see the potential. I have been using Linux for 11 years and I have<br>
seen too many projects that have really good goals that don't have<br>
good talented leadership fail to get off the ground. I am not saying<br>
that you are untalented but without examples of contributions it is<br>
hard to get away from that comparison.<br>
<br>
So what you probably want to do first is make some basic decisions.<br>
IE are you going to use an existing framework. Go out to<br>
Freshmeat.net and look at them. If you use a framework that is<br>
actively being developed you will get some upstream support. This<br>
will also help with a more rapid development. Once you get those<br>
decisions made put some code together that compiles and runs. It can<br>
be pretty basic but other developers are really going to judge<br>
you/this project based on a compile and run. When you have this code<br>
create a project on Sourceforge and announce on freshmeat.<br>
<br>
Starting on a local level would probably help get it off the ground if<br>
you offered a hackfest at a bar or something. Where a couple of free<br>
pitchers of beer show up on the table. :) I mean it couldn't hurt.<br>
