hi i'm a non programmer who wants to learn to program
because i wanna make http://twext.cc/go/twexter work

php has lots of developers and we have some existing
php code to start with, but maybe squeak is better?
* squeak sounds simpler
* maybe easier to learn
* maybe easier to work with
* http://wiki.laptop.org/go/WiXi#scratch

i got here because i saw an article i liked:
http://onsmalltalk.com/programming/smalltalk/simple-image-based-persistence-in-squeak/
which may be a way to avoid mysql
mysql looks really really hard to me..

my dream is distribute/find/modify/share twext data
in some kinda flexible machine readable and
very *human* readable flat file system:
http://twext.cc/go/18#.twx

first things first, my basic question is this:
would squeak be a good way to get text twext?
DEMO: http://twext.cc/twexter
CODE: http://twexter.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/twexter/twexter-basic/

if yes, is there anyone i can pay to help me
get twext with squeak?  thanks!!
