[Swift-devel] wiring swift and falkon together

[Ioan Raicu]

Hi,
I am certainly swamped right now for the next months or so at the very 
least (data caching support in Falkon, working with Nika for her apps, 
Kate+Borja for possibly using VMs and EC2, DSL Workshop, SC challenge 
brainstorming, HPDC hot topics paper, etc...). 

I could certainly use some help from developers which might be much more 
familiar with what it takes to get a prototype from research to 
production ready.  I am willing to work these developers, but if I have 
to do it myself (and with Yong's help), then I can't promise anything 
about what timeline I can have something more production ready.

Can any resources (developer power) be devoted to getting Falkon 
production ready?
