Salam / Hi :)

I'm new as you guessed, 
Just to introduce my self, I'm a software engineer, moving into second year ( don't under estimated me :D plz ) who's willing to help on opensource projects.
Looking around, I found out about arab eyes, which i will gladly be happy to contribute to.

Looking at the list of projects, there is loads and loads, well, at least when compared to the amount of people whom contributed. That makes me feel gutted by not helping out in any way I can.

So far, the OCR project seems fun, well, at least for me. One thing I need to note. where I welcome any suggestions on which project I shall contribute to, my skills:

Microchip ASM       // guess you dont need this, but you never know!
x86 ASM (normal)   // I assume you don't need that!
C (Professional)      // to some extend, my C skill are strong, but only C i.e. the STD lib, some Borland
C++(getting there)  // knowing C helps, but now I'm covering the STL, STD, and Borland VCL
QT (none)     // thinking about starting it
GTK(none)    // like above
VCL(beginner) // doing it for sake of Uni, i dont really like programming for windows.

Besides programming languages:

Fluent in Arabic/English
A practicing Muslim, so no problem working with the Quran project :)
Free for 3 months, I can do a lot before starting Uni :)
But sorry, I cant help with donations££, as i'm student relying on government funding.

If you're wondering where i'm from, then:
I'm from UK, well, living here, originally from Algeria, lived in Asia half my life :)
so I again, i have experience with Asians, Africans and Western :D:D (jokes!)

And thats it for today, I need to get going with C++ at the moment.

Regards/ ma3a assalamah
