We can try to market this project to students at UPB but 
ultimately we would still need a primary mentor, as I don't think 
I can fill that role; I can be a secondary mentor that helps the 
student navigate the dmd codebase, but ultimately someone with 
experience in LSPs should be mentoring (Jacob?).
