If you are interested in GUI programming please review Colin Peters' and Mumit Khan's pages. Check the FAQ and README files found at the ftp site. Also, in your spare time, check out the mail archives. Sort by subject and look at the interesting ones. If the posts break down into discussions not on the subject, the go to the next subject.
