Hi everyone! Thanks to all who attended Hac phi and made it such a success! I hope everyone had a great time writing code and meeting other Haskell hackers--I know I did. I'm planning to write a little round-up post on my blog and I'd love to include short descriptions of what projects people worked on. I remember what some people worked on but not everyone. So if you'd be so kind as to send me a one- or two-sentence description of what you worked on while at Hac phi, I'd very much appreciate it. Also, please send along any links to blog posts, pictures, etc. which I can include as well. thanks! -Brent

Thanks to Brent and the other organizers for their work, too. This was a wonderful time.

I finished a minimally working program called "taggert" that provides for a tagged view of a directory, using gtk2hs and HDBC-Sqlite3. http://mike-burns.com/project/taggert/taggert%20-%200.01%20preview.png -- Mike Burns mike@mike-burns.com http://mike-burns.com/

I had an awesome time! Thanks for organizing all of this and my complements
to your "advisor" who helped with the food etc. Please thank her for me.
Hope to at least see you all next year.

Thanks all for organizing and participating this event! It was a really great time hacking and chatting with you guys. You all made my first experience with the United States a very positive one! Cheers and see you around (maybe some of you this summer in Edinburgh), -- Sebastiaan Visser On Jul 27, 2009, at 11:23 AM, Brent Yorgey wrote:

Hey Brent, Mightybyte and I worked on the formlets on all three days. We made quite some internal changes and I had a lot of fun! Thanks again for organizing, I had a great time and lots of fun. -chris On 27 jul 2009, at 11:23, Brent Yorgey wrote:

Brent, Thank you (and Daniel et al) for hosting the hackathon! Shae and I had an amazing time. We mostly worked on Kata (the small, mostly untyped, lazy functional programming language of mine that you heard way too much about over the weekend) and Shae did some work on parsing FLAC files on the side. As you may have noticed, we conned Alec Heller into helping out near the end and continued coding until well after the hackathon ended. I could have done a better job preparing for the hackathon by having prepped the project to be effectively worked on by multiple people -- but that would have required me to know that we were going to be hacking on Kata! There should be a public release sometime in the relatively near future once the backend is operational. I may also try to split out the Haskell-like layout parser combinators into their own library. I also wound up putting together a nice scrap your boilerplate-style error reporting/collapsing monoid for use with my monoids library with Ravi and generally spent a lot of time running around talking with people. It was a blast. -Edward Kmett
