FeetWetCoding: Trying to make learning C++ a little more fun!

[Marco Calignano]

Hi Robert,

I was following the convesation and I think that the best move for you 
is really to open a developer account for you and your wife in KDE.
And move your code to the the Kde git server. Maybe first on a scratch 
project and then maybe in KDE-Edu playgroud.
Like that we can easely look at the code, you can get suggestions on how 
to improve your code and you can get people involved that maybe can spend
more time coding that you do.
Come and join us I am sure you won't regret it.

Cheers
Marco
