View source for LtU-Kiev/Hackathon

'''LtU-Kiev Hackathon''' is a collaborative coding festival aimed towards
building and improving Haskell libraries, tools, and infrastructure.

This event is also a get-together of functional programming
enthusiasts.  With this in mind, attendees are free to choose any
programming language they like for their hacking.

LtU-Kiev Hackathon is open to all. You don't have to be a Haskell guru
to attend. All you need is a project you are excited to help with or
an individual project to work on.

=== darcs ===
Hackers: ADEpt

Adding tests to pathlib and fixing path-handling bugs reported by me

=== loker ===
[http://github.com/feuerbach/loker UNIX Shell scripts parser]

I plan to conduct an introduction to the project for new and wannabe
contributors at the beginning of the first day.

One of the topics will be [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data-flow_analysis Data-flow analysis], see [https://groups.google.com/group/loker-sh/msg/2e4f653fe64e1581 this mail].

=== cabal ===
Going to check out some [http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/report/13 easy tickets].

Hackers: Oleg Smirnov, maybe ADEpt (not-so-easy tickets)

Hackers: rssh

=== under.c ===

`[http://github.com/vvv/under.c#readme under]' utility decodes binary
DER data to textual S-expressions and/or encodes sexps back to DER.
This C program is based on [http://okmij.org/ftp/Streams.html iteratees]
and is rather ''functional'' in this respect.

Plan is to extend existing functionality with pluggable codecs.

Hackers: vvv

=== nullfs ===

[http://github.com/xrgtn/nullfs#readme nullfs] is a set of FUSE filesystem
drivers aiming to implement useful and simultaneously technically
sound notions of <code>/dev/null</code>-alike directory.
You can cast nullfs FUSE spell on almost any
directory you like hence transforming it into
<code>/dev/nulldir</code>.

There are 3 spells available: <code>nul1fs</code>,
<code>nulnfs</code> and <code>nullfs</code> (in
odrer from primitive to the most elaborate).

Hackers: xrgtn
