Hi, I am a M.Sc. student in Computer Science at University of Strasbourg (France). I am stepping out of "lurker mode" because I intend to submit a proposal as a Google Summer of Code student to work on a garbage collection for JikesRVM, LLVM, Mono or GHC, which have all been accepted by Google as mentoring organizations.
I would like to know if anything in particular would be most likely advance the BitC agenda (either in the short or longer term). For instance I seem to remember that LLVM was dismissed as an initial target platform for lack of appropriate GC support (among others), and that Mono is the current favorite. Do you have any advice as to which project and what GC algorithm(s) I should target? Also, feel free to suggest something completely different. I'm currently considering submitting a proposal to work on a concurrent collector for MMTk (JikesRVM).
