[Gambas-user] Marketing

[Fabien Bodard]

Hey guys, the logo, name and acronym have really not importance... as you
take many time, to make criticisme on that poor elements, please take many
time to make news, information testing party as i do, to improve the world
knowledge about Gambas. And don't forget that the most part of people that
work on Gambas developpement are not English natives... It is not theire
language, and as you can see not mine too.

Gambas like python will grow in use by people not with marketing (it is not
running on windows) but with it's numerous qualities. And there are many.

First it is the simplicity of the language, it's stability, and it's great
team disponibilty... (all of them have a rincipal job in side)

Fabien

I hope you understand my so poor English
