Wow, thats quite a bit I hadn't even considered, mostly because I wouldn't know where, or, for that matter, how to begin.

I'll look at them one by one.

"Development of a script for some specific USB device support": Hmm, while interesting, I wouldn't have a clue how, though I'm more than willing to learn if you can point out something that could explain that.

"Create a new client-server app": Ooh, this is something I've wanted to try to do for a while, but I've never gotten over that first major hurdle of figuring out how to get them to talk to each other, any suggestions?

"Find a pair of file types that need conversion...": My biggest flaw at the moment may very well be that I have a rediculously hard time understanding the anatomy of a file format. I've never really worked with anything becides plain text. Once again, if you have any suggestions as to how I could get better, just say so :)

"[Improve Perl I/O support]": Hmm, interesting, are you refering to the IO modules, or to something else though?

#5: Well, umm... could you explain that in a little more detail (/me has minimal knowledge of network systems & program interaction)

I know, I'm helpless! Hehe. Seriously, all of those sound interesting, but for most, I'd have no idea how to do it. That's part of why I'm doing this project though, to try to learn something I don't already know. So if you can answer any of those questions, I'll appreciate it. Thanks!

Note: Yes, by some freak accident I made it to "Friar" here without any of that knowledge.


My code doesn't have bugs, it just develops random features.
