LamdaVM was the only full-fledged effort to port Haskell to the JVM,
and like most graduate school projects, the project is now dead.
I have strong interest in hosting GHC on the JVM. And I suspect it
would be good for the Haskell community, as the JVM already runs on
nearly every machine known to man, has a wealth of cross-platform
libraries, and is getting improved support for dynamic and functional
languages (method handles, tail call).

Is there an interest in hosting GHC on the JVM (besides my own).
I know I don't have time to tackle such a project but I'd be
extremely interested in using such a thing. Especially in my day to
day work. I currently do a lot of Java <-> Erlang via JInterface,
and have been for months, yet there's many tasks I could do better
in a language like Haskell.
