GSoC 2016 - Precise GC

[Jeremy DeHaan via Digitalmars-d-announce]

Hi everyone!

I'm a little late to the party as far as my announcement goes, 
but I have been busy reading code and doing research for my 
project.

I was selected for this year's GSoC to implement a Precise GC, 
but I'm also planning to remove the lock on allocations as 
outlined in my proposal:

My repository for the code can be found here: 
https://github.com/Jebbs/druntime


I will be posting of my progress in this thread throughout the 
course of the summer, but right now I am mainly focusing on 
familiarizing myself with all of the GC code since there is quite 
a lot of it. You will probably see me pushing some updates to 
documentation between now and when GSoC officially starts, but I 
hope to have already started making progress before then.

I'll do my best to not let you all down!
