[Q] How to program Android?

Hi guys,
I've been wanting to learn how to program Android for a while now out of personal interests as well as to contribute to the community. I've tried looking into it but all I find is how to program Android applications in Java. I'm looking more on the lines of programming to develop ROMs and such, would that be in Java as well?
I'm not a programmer (only took a Python course in college) but I'd like to learn and if any one could point me in the right direction it would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
Android is made up of C, C++ and Java.

Thank you FaultException for your reply. The post from Cyanogen was insightful and I believe that it is just what I needed!

custom rom!!!

hello to everyone... is there any forum for noobies to ask for how to develop a custom ROM? I have download all the packages (SDK, ECLIPSE, JAVA, thats all i think) and i want to help u to improve or make my own custom ROM i dont know if this is the wright place to ask thank u for your time i have X10mini and i try every ROM in here and kernels
i try to google it or search in here but i havent linux pc or ubuntu so i will very thankfull if there is any guide for windows platform step by step which use eclipse and SDK
If you have no knowledge, you should forget about it. If you want to build from source you need to know how linux work and how to debug the most common errors. It's really hard to develop something original right now.
thank u for the reply... well... im not such interesting to built my rom as to improve an existing rom to working correctly... i try the sdk and eclipse but i dont unterstand many things maybe because im new in town... now im looking on cygwin and kitchen ... it seems more familiar and easy but is it for sony ericsson for example or im losing time... thank u for your time
