As discussed in the interview and (quite badly) on the 
application, I will delay the start by a week on account of 
finals.

My project turned out to be rather badly named, as due to changed 
circumstances, I will not work on the lock, at least not 
initially. Instead, David convinced me that I should try to 
implement the druntime side of precise marking. Lockless 
allocation will be implemented one the precise marking works, or 
when I'm totally stuck on it for long enough that I need to work 
on something else for a while instead.
