lots of ideas, no experience, many questions;

[Zip]

Hello, my name is Zip. I am a Dreamcast enthusiast. I play a lot of homebrew, and I recently ordered an sd adapter, keyboard, and mouse. I really want to contribute to the DC homebrew scene although I am currently inexperienced. I do not expect to write my own programs or anything, but I would like to be able to port games to Dreamcast. To do this I know I need source code so I have searched for open source games and found many I like. I would also like to learn to make Scummvm disks, and I have a good Idea for a mod / repair guide for the DC ebook program. I wonder if it is possible to use a ps2 Guitar Hero controller with a Total Control Plus adapter on the DC. There is an open source Guitar Hero clone called Frets on Fire that will support the controller and also supports official Guitar Hero song packs. This would make a very good port. I have found a tutorial for translating in game text for the game "7 Mansions" This game was never released in the US and I have always wanted to play it. I am also trying to collect a complete Super Nintendo Pal romset for use in DreamSnes because I heard Pal roms are more compatible. These are some of my ideas. I have a friend who is a programmer and is willing to teach me, but I would like to know where to start.
