To add one to your list: I just pushed out CoffeeScript 0.2.5 a couple of minutes ago. (CoffeeScript is a Ruby/Potion/Python/Harmony-ish to JavaScript compiler, for those who haven't seen it.)
I'm doing a talk about it tomorrow (Thursday) night at NYCJS, and if you live in New York and work on a source-to-source compiler, you should come and discuss implementation ideas.
Resources for doing this sort of thing are hard to find on the web. There's hardly space for comparison between "serious compilers", and things like like CoffeeScript and Pharen, which are both well under two thousand lines of code.
- Scriptor 17y agoLooking at CoffeeScript was definitely an inspiration to pick up the pace on Pharen. :) I'm actually a student in New York but can't be there Thursday. Will you be giving this talk at any other events?
- jashkenas 17y agoThat's too bad. I don't have any plans for other events at the moment, but if you're in New York we should go grab a coffee sometime and talk shop. jashkenas(at)gmail, if you want to get in touch.
