Hello,
My name is Neka. I make it to the meeting as often as possible. I was
wondering if there are any projects that I can participate in with my level
of JAVA programming. Also, I am looking to program part-time. I have been
given a few sources as to where to find part-time programming work, but do
you have any suggestions? Let me know.
Thank you
Neka
