One really helpful thing would be to · make a wiki home page for the Windows Task Force
· list who is on it · list the main tasks “in flight” and what their status is · any other plans Anything to broaden visibility of the WTF, and encourage others to join in. Communication is all in an open-source context! Thanks for working on Windows… it’s a very popular platform, and needs your love!

Others please feel free to bug me any time by email ([email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>) or on freenode #ghc as dedgrant, PST hours. In the meantime I'll be auditing some of the related backlogged tickets on trac. If there's something I can do to help further the goal of a Windows Task Force page, please let me know. Pleased to meet everyone! Cheers, Darren On Mon, Feb 16, 2015 at 8:48 PM, Darren Grant <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: Thank you kindly for the great introduction.
