[Mono-dev] GSoC - TPL Dataflow

[Petr Onderka]

Hi,

I'd like to participate in this year's GSoC, by implementing the
“Finish .NET 4.5 TPL Dataflow” project.

I find the new async-await very cool and especially the TPL Dataflow library.
I have already tried working with the beta implementation of it from
Microsoft, so I know what does it entail.

Regarding the proposal statement, it says to “implement more blocks”,
among other things.
When comparing what is in the mono repository and on MSDN, I see only
BatchedJoinBlock missing in current mono.
Are there any other blocks that need to be implemented, or is it just the one
(or two, if you consider the type with 2 type parameters different
from the one with 3 of them)?

I think the rest of the action items are pretty clear.
