CodeConnector to go C++

Code Connector is an open source project I started which provides centralized project and file management, multi-user text editing, and communication tools in one package. It initially was written in Java, but after much thought I decided it must be written in C++. The primary reason is performance. This is a large and intensive program, and because of this, performance is an important issue. And I think Java just doesn't cut it. Since I started this project my view of java has changed quite a bit. Java just seems less and less of a powerful desktop application programming language. Java is certainly a powerful language for certain tasks, but not CodeConnector.

The previous project members have been "laid off" and I am hoping to bring in a few good programmers with C++ experience. Know any?

I have started the conversion of the communication mechanism, but that has proven to be a difficult task because of the difference between classes and objects in Java and C++. Those of you who know these languages should know what I'm talking about. The rest should be cake.
