Re: [glob2-devel] hi

[whereis Mykake]

Thanks for the replies Bradley and Valentin. at least i got few replies. 
The forum is not that dead. :-)

for the new algorithms to apply on glob2's market, i have to go through 
the existing algorithms and other code.
I am not certain if algorithms used in financial market back testing 
analysis/forward predictions can be used in context with glob2. but 
there could be other algorithms that can be tried.
I mean i am very new to glob2's code, so i should not comment on how to 
do that so early.

I liked that, there are only worker/explorer/warrior and NO managers.

Which other open source code project for c++/Linux you can suggest that 
has good OO concepts deployed? (preferably with multi-threading.)
Not too big project, so that new comers to C++ can digest it.

regards,
wimk.
