I'm working on an experimental Haskell compiler that produce parallel
code for skeletons and I want to reuse the frontend of ghc.
Our compiler does not aim to produce efficient code if deeply nested
closures are involved. We choose for a functional language to make
the transformations easy and allow to use skeletons as first-class
citizens. Typical applications to be compiled with our compiler
will be numerical algorithms or graph algorithms, expressed functionally
with the help of skeletons.
However, I'm the only person working at it --sometimes-- so please
don't expect that it will be ready to use like GpH in the near future.
Anyway, I plan to hand out a version for hackers without any guarantee
some time.
