You should hop on over to the eab c++ forum and post your questions in there. Would get bebbo's attention. He seems quite keen and would likely prove very helpful.
I tried to register there, but got this message:
"Registration denied, this forum runs an active policy of not allowing spammers. Please contact us via the "Contact Us" page link if you believe this is in error."
There is no "Contact Us" link. Why it thinks I'm a spammer is beyond me. I even correctly entered their "I'm not a robot" captcha. Either way, I have no way to register, and no way of contacting them...
