[ome-devel] Language poll

[Javier Tibau]

I quote Josiah Johnston here since I couldn't have said it any better. :)

I'm Javier Tibau. I'm studying computer science and got contacted by Daniel
Ochoa to work on OME so the Center can use it with APROFE. I haven't done
any perl programming and until recently haven't done any serious work. I
hope this will be the first of my contributions :)
I'm thrilled about the OME comunity, and have found very friendly people
here. Thanks to Tom Macura for introducing me to Josiah Johnston. And to
Josiah for enduring my lack of knowledge in many areas :)
