Welcome to Rosetta Code! I'm Mike, and I noticed you created an account.

Some quick things you should be aware of:

Template:Mylang Helps you show what languages you're familiar with, and helps us become aware of skills with languages we haven't seen.
Category:Unimplemented tasks by language A place to find tasks missing solutions in various languages.
Blogs, twitter, facebook... We have them, and are interested in yours.
Special:Webchat Logs you into #rosettacode on the Freenode IRC channel. Not usually the most active communications medium, but occasionally helpful. It's logged at http://irclog.perlgeek.de/rosettacode/today.
Rosetta Code:Village Pump A general Q/A and discussion area.
Rosetta Code:Finances For most of Rosetta Code's history, expenses have been paid out of my pocket. I can't afford that much longer, and so you can see the state of Rosetta Code's finances, and how you may help. If you enjoy or are excited about the site, please consider reading through it.

Sorry for the boilerplate; it can be a bit difficult giving an individual greeting to each person. If you post information about your technical interests and background, I'll probably read it. If you already have put that kind of information on your user page, I probably already have; I'm always interested in how people do and can benefit from Rosetta Code.

I noticed you have the same username as the language you maintain. That's fine! I allow and endorse language advocacy, as long as it comes in the form of source code. (I'll usually stay out of things and let the people who know what they're talking about discuss it. On the other hand, if the debate devolves into the realm of vitriol, I have to step in to mediate or cool things down.)

I also left a note on the Objeck talk page; if you're planning on specifically maintaining a role managing Objeck's presence on the site, you might want to add those category and talk pages to your Watchlist, so you can keep apprised of what's going on. Also, I've occasionally seen young and old languages alike show up on the site, discover difficulties where their designers didn't expect them, and evolve and improve to counter. I look forward to watching Objeck's experiences on the site.

Again, welcome! --Michael Mol 03:35, 17 May 2010 (UTC)
