Haskell Project Hackathon

Friday, February 11th, 2pm – Sunday, February 13th 2pm

Come join a group of Haskell hackers. Bring your own projects, or work on ours: It is more fun to do it in a group!

Saturday, February 12th, 10am – 4pm

Come learn Haskell! No prior Haskell experience needed. Bring your laptop and a willingness to have your brain stretched in enjoyable ways. We’ll be do some web programming in Haskell.

Projects

If you're going to attend and plan working on a project, please put it up here so other interested hackers can see what sorts of projects are afoot.

Compiler plugins for GHC

I plan on helping integrate and maintain compiler plugins for GHC. My work at the hackathon will be to try and get the current patch (allowing you to write Core optimizations) applied to GHC HEAD. Following that, my plan is to extend the functionality, so you can write Cmm passes as well.

There's a wiki-page describing this on-going work: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/NewPlugins
