Hi !!!
It's nice to know that there are such entusiastic people out there.

Yes, you are welcome to help us, in fact any help is really welcome.
 
> 	How many are you ?

We are 10 active (I unknow the number of lurkers) promoters of the idea
(and coders), we are using FPC as our Object Pascal Compiler, it is very
near Delphi 4 and it is already done and best of all it works !!. 

> 	Hame many people do you think are interested in helping ?

Sorry I don't understand Harne. But any help is right, you know how much
people we are much more we can laught :)

> 	have you looked at Glade & gIDE ?

Yes, we have a patch for Glade, so it can generate ObjectPascal code
instead of C. 
gIDE, the last time I take a look at it, it seemed to be a work in early
stages (like we are now).

I want to do it, but we have no gived the project enought publicity because
we are defining the building blocks needed, I'm writing a Megido (the name
of the project) HelloWorld, it needs very few (but important) things done
to get it working, mostly signal dispatching, I think that in two weeks we
can show the rest of the world the very first Megido app, with a very basic
MCL libraries, enought to get it working and show that our idea is possible
and asking for more help . In that moment I will promote it widely.

Yes this is our idea also,

Ok. Don't worry

We have some web pages (absolutely outdated) in
http://www.math.tau.ac.il/~zmichael/megido/megido.html and a mailing list
in majordomo@clubdelphi.com you can subscribe with  a
"subscribe megido <yourname@yourdomain> end "in the body of the message.
