I would, except I am currently a mentor for a student CubeSat project. I probably shouldn't take on more this year. I don't know anything about WebAssembly, but if clang does a good job with targetting wasm, then teaching LDC to do the same could be a manageble project for a student in my opinion. There might be some difficult problems. For example, I just looked and the LLVM WebAssembly target doesn't support thread-locals. But that wouldn't stop progress. -- Dan
