gEDA-dev: Newbie developer guidelines.

Hi Sundara --

Thanks for your e-mail and interest in the gEDA project!  We're glad
to have you!

My question for you is:  What are you interested in?  Do you like
simulation?  Are you a math geek?  Or are you more interested in
fiddling with a GUI?  Or do you enjoy creating scripts to automate
various tasks?  Are you an artistic type who likes to draw?  Or maybe
you prefer organized, methodical tasks?

My point is:  We have lots of projects.  What you should do is think
about the kinds of things you'd like to do for fun.  You are most
likely to be successful if you are working on something which turns
you on.  Therefore, if you consider things you are learning at school,
and things you do as a hobby, what is your favorite?  Let us know and
then we can make a few suggestions.
