• /CodeWorld: Educational computer programming environment using Haskell
• /hnix: A Haskell re-implementation of the Nix expression language
• /haddock: Your favourite Haskell documentation generation tool
• karya: A 2D music language, score editor, or sequencer in Haskell. There is also a synthesis backend, and a konnakol-based haskell DSL for writing rhythmic structures.

Is this a scam to steal my intellectual property?

BayHac is not that kind of hackathon; there is no competitive coding element here. It is only a "hackathon" in the sense that a group of Haskellers will gather to hack on various projects.
