ANN: OpenNETCF.org needs help

[Chris Tacke, eMVP]

All,

We've now put together a fair amount of library code, but are severely
lacking in the area of samples and articles. If you have or would like to
write sample code or an article outlining how to use an OpenNETCF control or
library, please drop us a line with what you would like to volunteer for.

Chris and others,

I just tried to send you an email at (e-mail address removed), but I got a
mail server authentication error.

Even though this newsgroup is not meant for this, here is the mail I tried
to send:

-------------------------
Hi guys,


I would be willing to help out writing either sample code or articles
outlining the use of controls / libraries. In between work and writing a
couple of articles for MSDN and for a couple of Dutch magazines there is not
much spare time left, but I am sure I can put in some time. Do you have
anything particular in mind right now? I would be willing to help out in any
area except databases and data communication / networking, since I lack
experience in those areas. In area's like the C# language, P/Invoke using
the WinAPI library (you guys made it really easy of course), user interfaces
and custom controls I probably can contribute most. You can find an example
of one of my articles on MSDN:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/dncenet/html/Real-Time_NETCF.asp
(assisted by Michel Verhagen). Some more samples can be found on my own
website (www.dotnetfordevices.com). Those are mainly translations of
articles, published in Dutch computer magazines.


Looking forward to hear from you,


Maarten Struys

When I finish my current project, I'll try to write up some of the
lessons I've learned and examples of how to do some stuff (virtual
listviews, etc). It took painful amounts of googling to figure some
of it out, and I'd like to do what I can to make things easier for
others in the future.

Great. That's what OpenNETCF.org is all about - preventing anyone from
re-inventing the wheel.

Definitely. Speaking of which, I owe you a major thanks - virtual
listviews require WndProc handling, and I couldn't have done it
without your OpenNETCF.Callbacks library. Many many many thanks
