Hi guys,
So I am in the process of forming a Software Development Interest Group in my class. I have so far convinced about 5 people to join the group - 3 of us have some experience with other programming languages. I am thinking of growing the group and then dividing it into divisions - each division will handle specific tasks or activities. I been spending some time learning Java... will be starting Android in a few days time... will probably perfect my PHP and MySQL Knowlege as well.
What I want to ask from you amazing people is a couple of things:
I have gone and spoken to a professor within my department at University, and I was delighted to know that they have a load of projects that they receive and work on, and that they will be needing some help. She asked me to do a markup of an Android screen where the user can enter patient information for a hospital.
By November this year, I am hoping the group will be big like I visioned, and hopefully, the ground work for some ideas I have will be in place
Thanks.

What I want to ask from you amazing people is a couple of things:
- What tools are available that help groups work together
- Where else can I find small / medium projects to work on, within Port Elizabeth / East London?
- Is it fine recruiting people who just have the desire to learn more and not just the skill they have - There is 3 of us who know something - the other members just know what the university has taught us.
- What other pieces of advice do you have?
