I'm interested in recruiting ugrads to:

*) write a C# compiler in C#

*) write a Java bytecode backend for Vortex, and
*) write an MSIL front-end & back-end for Vortex -- these two things would allow
Vortex to act as a IL-to-IL optimizer, for the Java bytecode IL and for MS's
.NET IL (which has C#, VB, Cobol, & Java front-ends).

These could be funded by MS.

I'm also interested in ugrads working on any of our other projects, if you all
can think of a good way they could contribute. Keunwoo, could a ugrad use your
graphics library stuff for Cecil to do a cool UI for browsing Cecil code (better
than our earlier gross thing)?
