My Tech Notes

Google Summer of Code is another interesting initiative from Google which I haven't heard about before or at least haven't mentioned it in this blog. Very interesting list of FOSS projects which Google deems important enough for the community and ideas from the authors of each respective project on various ways to improve it.

Check, for example, ideas from GNU Compiler Collection makers or from Haskell.
