development/contributing

["Juan Hernandez" <juanh cox net>]

hello everyone,

I hope all of you are well.

 

First I would like to introduce myself.  I've been on this list for a while now, but have really never said much, I've been more of an observer.

 

I feel like startting to contribute as much as I can.

 

I have a few questions.

 

1.  I am totally blind, what platforms do orca and gnopernicus run the best on, or more exactly what platforms do you all run them the most successfully on?

 

2.  is orca open for development by external people?  or is it only a sun project?

 

3.  I am not sure, but is orca written in java?

 

Thats enough questions for now, Thanks everyone.
