I have a few questions concerning Simba, as I'm willing to start scripting it as soon as possible.

1. Where are the tutorials to learning the language?
2. Who can I go to for help?
3. How can I contribute to the Include?
3.5 Is the entirety of SRL Simba-compliant?
4. How can I contribute to the community, plugins, testing, etc.?

1. most, nearly all, of the tutorials will work with simba
2. anyone really, post in the help section and people will probably help
3. if you can think of something that would be useful then suggest it, if you have a function or procedure that you think should be in there then post it and if the devs think it is good enough then they might add it
4. not all of srl will work with Simba, but most of them will, some of the scripts will need a minor change to work
5. just use simba instead of scar and if you find a problem then post it to be fixed at http://bugs.villavu.com

6. Why won't this work?
program new;
begin
Writeln("Hello World!");
end.

The possible contributions currently are writing scripts. If you are a bit knowledgeable in using Simba, you can write documentation.

That's like the worst part/step in making any program :p
