So the purpose of this project would be to write a C library and a client
that will
use this library.

>From the phrase "server needs a repository to start", i understand that
there is
no code written until now. The repository will be an official one or should
I start
a new one on my git account, bitbucket or github ?

>From now on I will start watching the python and the java libraries, to
understand
them, so that will be more easy for me to implement the C library.


Could you please tell me if there are more tricks that i should know or
could you
give to me some documentation to read that you think will be appropriate for
this
project?

Regards,
Iulian
