The idea is, I think, to know what languages people could contribute to Git; see analysis of this question at GitSurvey2007 page on git wiki= : http://git.or.cz/gitwiki/GitSurvey2007#head-ecb5564d71e4093e2e93e5083= 80407a26dbcbdea C++ is for QGit, Java for egit/jgit, C# for git#/widgit and perhaps Git-Cheetah, PHP for web interfaces, Ruby because of GitHub, Python because some contrib is in Python, Emacs Lisp for git.el, HTML+CSS and JavaScript for web interfaces; perhaps we should also add AsciiDoc for documentation. And of course "I am not programmer" response... But I'm not too tied to this question; I guess it can be simply removed if it doesn't offer some important (for us) information. --=20 Jakub Narebski Poland
