If your a junior developer, looking for a BBM group to join to combine efforts, you are more than welcome to join the junior developer chat!
It can be difficult to find like minded individuals or to ask hard questions, and one thing I learnt from OSBBx, is you can quickly learn a lot when you have a good group to bounce ideas off of
All developers welcome!

I just sent an invite off to the group. I used to dev with the android community making icon sets and themes, hoping to help develop some full blown apps for BB10, and maybe if BB ever releases a theme engine for 10 develop on that as well.
I did programming with VB6, C# back in my University days (2000). Did not pursue a career in programming so have forgotten a bit but do however remember the basics and logics of it all. I was a pretty good student.
I am a huge BlackBerry fan and have a couple of ideas for apps that I would like to make.
Wanting some feedback on what sort of stuff will I need go learn in order to make an app for BB10
Your going to be stuck with AS3 (flash), HTML5 or C++
AS3 makes bigger packages. And is semi portable (PB/BB10/iOS/Android). It has lost some ground to HTML5 but don't go away completely for a myriad of reasons.
HTML5 is most portable. You can do true cross platform but experiences vary from system to system.
NDK/Cascades. Well cascades is amazing *BUT it only works for BB10. NDK is basically good for QT apps in C++. Very portable again, but doesn't support the full API set of cascades for some reason.
Each of those breaks down farther into IDE fanilies.
