Hi Ben,

The Wiki now has a link to the Google Doc that Michal and I were working on to compile all of the notes into one place.

The key progress made on this front has been in evaluating the trade-offs of the design space being considered by GHC, but tested within Manticore.

I'm drafting a message today for the LLVM mailing list regarding one of our first options: defining a GHC ABI to redefine which stack-pointer register is used.

Once we have additional answers to the question "how much effort is it to add a GHC ABI to LLVM?", we can then then start a discussion on whether GHC wants to change instead by moving to a native stack-pointer register (to take advantage of existing debugging and profiling tools, etc).

Ideally, we would then make a decision on which option to take and someone (perhaps a GSoC student with mentorship from myself and others) with spare time can work on it.

Cheers,

Kavon
