Lightning Talks

Aaron Wolf - Snowdrift.coop: FLO fundraising built with Yesod
Harold Carr - a Haskell Bitly Client using Template Haskell & Aeson
Tad Doxsee - PlanIt9: Learning Web Programming via Haskell (pdf)
Paul Ivanov - IHaskell Notebook
Ben Burdotle - Cyclophone
John Millikin - The "options" package
Jon Sterling - Vinyl
Conal Eliott - Haskell to HW

Attendees

Jonathan Fischoff - organizer
Mark Lentczner - asst. organizer
David Banas - amateur Haskeller
Michael Litchard - Haskeller
Conal Elliott
Tikhon Jelvis

Projects

TreeViz - a computation breakdown visualization project hosted by David Banas
Haskell Platform, the new build - We are working on a new build system for all of Haskell Platform: Generating tarballs, installers, and even the web site from one single Shake based build tool. Lots to do! See Mark Lentczner.
lambda-ccc - a project for compiling Haskell to hardware. I'm doing this work for my day job, but the development is open, and the result will be shared freely. The project starts with a GHC plugin that transforms Core in order to generate a convenient-to-manipulate GADT representation of the original. Then convert to an Arrow-like algebraic interface that can be interpreted in various ways, including as circuits. See Conal Elliott.
see what Template Haskell generates. For those interested in hacking on the GHC compiler, see Greg Weber
Snowdrift.coop — a community-engagement and fundraising platform strictly for Free/Libre/Open projects, built on Yesod; Head developer David Thomas and co-founder (and Haskell beginner) Aaron Wolf will be on hand. We have a wide range of projects at different levels and sizes to hack on.

We'll be hanging out on #bayhac on FreeNode.
