Hello Thomas, the HalVM project was brought to our attention by an anonymous posting at our Sourceforge forum:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/genode/forums/forum/825067/topic/3983252 Even though I am not experienced with using Haskell myself, I recognize the potential of using this language in the context of systems development. E.g., it plays a pivotal role in the seL4 verification project at NICTA, and I have been impressed by the work of Mark P. Jones and his group at OGI/PDX with conducting the House project. We listed this project idea because we realize that HalVM (or in a broader sense, Haskell) should receive our attention at some time in the future. Do you think that porting GHC to Genode is a necessity? I expected that GHC could just be used to cross-compile code. So only the Haskell runtime has to be ported. But as I said, I lack profound knowledge in this area. Are you somehow involved in the development of HalVM?
