I think you'll find that issuing your pet project as a challenge to programmers at large is unlikely to get them to work on it for you for free. While some programmers may (as you seem to think) have huge egos and think "Ha! I am Smart! I can do that Easily!", in my experience they are also lazy and conclude, "But why should I?" You are several orders of magnitude more likely to get a response if you offer money. Your chances go up even more if you hire through standard channels, rather than usenet. Furthermore, this has nothing whatever to do with DJGPP and should not have been posted here in the first place. Some group with a title more like "misc.jobs.programmers.wanted" would have been more appropriate. > A friend of mine suggested this and it might help you get started: > > "Why keep the voice chat browser based?
