Subject: Getting Involved

Hi,

I'm looking to get involved working on GHC - I've been using Haskell for quite a while now and thought I'd give back to the community.

Bit about me: I'm Blair an (4th year) Undergraduate at the University of Glasgow and my main interests at the moment are Functional Programming, Runtime systems (mainly memory management/GC work) and Transactional Memory (making GHC a great place to be!)

I've noticed that there is talk of adding a better flags parser to the RTS and this seems like a good place to start (less likely to break things!). Ticket: #4243

Is anyone currently working in this area or have plans to start work in this area?

Many thanks,
Blair
