So this can help give people some basic ideas and provide help more specifically.

My goal is to implement a prototype modification to spark's optimizer to exhibit/experiment some of my PhD work. I was hoping to set up a chat with somebody who is familiar with catalyst and the best place to start modifying. Thanks, Walter wal...@cs.washington.edu<mailto:wal...@cs.washington.edu>
