Hey there,
I'm not on the mailing list actually, but I would love to be. Yeah,
working in some compatibility between hyperopt and spearmint would be
really great. I have found that I've been making more many promises on
coding work than I can keep recently, so I won't promise anything, but I
would be happy to help out in whatever ways I can.
