I submitted such an idea last year but it didn't make it on the radar
screen. :)
I'm happy to play a co-mentor role on this if someone signs up to be
the lead mentor. I'm tied up time-wise with PhD qualifying exams this
summer. Perhaps several people would volunteer to help with the spec
(Alex, Henrik? Maybe Edi Weitz would participate too - he was
interested in this sometime back) and someone can take on helping the
coder with setup and the day-to-day implementation details.

so it might be a good opportunity to actually implement that native
lisp
backend ideas, if somebody agrees to be a mentor (and, of course, if
someone
agrees to be a student, and Google or whoever funds this..)
actually some similar project idea was already submitted:
* Storage engine for various databases. The Idea would be to produce
a lib
that is incorporated into other projects. to handle efficient
storage on
disk of data.
it might be better to start this with something concrete, i.e.
elephant :)
