Hi,

My name is Kevin Avignon and I'm a senior software engineering student in 
Canada. In college, most of our courses are given using Java. As an intern 
in my three different internships, I was exposed to C#, XAML and F# as 
other languages. Looking at the projects in Scala, I am very interested 
because Scala is to Java what F# is to C# and I love what I'm seeing from 
F#. At the moment, I am interested by the 4, yes 4 !, following projects : 



   1. Fast Parser
   2. CoRoutines
   3. Support for Dotty
   4. Scala Build tool

For someone with some knowledge of functional programming with another 
language, I was wondering if it mattered? The problem with FP is not the 
language by itself, but more getting around the FP paradigm. That was what 
I shown during a tech conference in a user group. Right now, I am very 
interested in learning Scala but I would like to know which projects 
mentors would like me to focus more on knowing that, yes I know the FP 
paradigm and a FP language, but it's not Scala. I'd like to add that I'm 
very fast to learn new tech and I'd love to be of use during the summer!

Thanks!
