newbie group http://groups-beta.google.com/group/common-lisp-beginners



Hi,
I just created a new group only for very newbies Common Lisp
Programmers.
This group is only suitable for developers trying to learn Common Lisp
as a new language, or just looking for some very basic lisp snippet of
code.
The idea is to have a corner for learning Common Lisp before becoming a
real lisp programmer that could participate here.
The group is for first level programming students, or for developers
using another programming languages like me.
I have experience in C#, VB.NET, and want to go into functional
languages, particularly Common Lisp.

greetings,
