Could the rest of the developers comment on this.

I ask because I can code in C/C++ and if there is work that is
*More*important for the project I could propose to do something else.
I am
comfortable with separate tools so I totally understand.  The reason that I
proposed to work on the Project Manager is because I currently make GUIs at
work so I have a fairly good understanding of all the details that are
involved in making one work.
