Development
Global Circle of Knowledge software is being developed as an enhancement of the OpenOffice.org suite.
We are currently in need of Java programmers, C++ programmers, OpenOffice developers, as well as designers and artists.
All of our developers need to aquire the following parts in order to be able to code and test the program.
We strongly recommend that you meet all System Requirements and that your
Operating System is up-to-date. If you don't have a CVS tool, you can choose one from this
list, we recommend using the easy-to-use
TortoiseCVS on MS Windows platforms.
