Hi everyone,
It may sounds a bit annoying because I already was asking
everywhere in the IRC channels but still had no success -
Is there anyone who wants to be my GSoC mentor for the Mono-D
project?
In the case you don't know what Mono-D is all about:
It's about creating a D language binding for MonoDevelop.
(http://monodevelop.com/Screenshots )
There are couple of things that are already implemented - like
a relatively nice but fast code completion, build support,
small refactoring operations like they can be used in every
modern IDE and few other things which will make application
development with D a lot easier - especially for D newbies.
(Debugging is also available via gdb on Linux systems - so
yeah, why not? :))
The main road map for this summer of code is available under
https://github.com/aBothe/Mono-D/blob/master/MonoDevelop.DBinding/Remaining%20features.txt
- Especially things like the evaluation of constant expressions
and CTFE made e.g. a pre-compile-time view of mixin expressions
possible! - This would be more than nice, I guess!
So if you want to support D (and perhaps me, too ;)) - be a
mentor for GSoC to let D roll a bit more!

For contact, you can speak to me in the #d and #d.mono-d
channel on freenode - I'm called 'alex|D-Guy' there
Bump.
This is a great project, and IMO, key to the popularity of D
among a wider audience. Best of luck, Alex. Sounds like you've
got some great ideas planned.
