Hey,

The only reason I ask is that miguel pointed out that the compiler is
undergoing substantial refactoring which will take 2-3 months. That would
mean that the work should be complete about the end of June, 4-5 weeks from
the end of gsoc.

So, if you are going to go ahead with this, I'd recommend getting in touch
with whoever is working on the compiler and getting their input on how best
to proceed. They may have some useful advice on where to start and what
major changes are going to be implemented which will affect your project.

Alan.
