Hello, Michael!

I have managed to downwload "Getting Started" tutorial which is all
right to get started with Sophie. However, what I initially had in
mind when I commented on the system was about the developer resources.
Suddenly, when I have seen there were so many packages in the
Monticello repository, I differed my interest. :)

Besides, where should one start with Rome/Cairo? There is indeed many
packages to choose from.

Regards,
Ian
