Dear Caml-List,

The CDuce team is seeking to hire a research engineer for a two month
position in Paris. CDuce is an XML-oriented functional language
developed as a joint research project by three different groups in
Paris (École Normale Supérieure, Université Paris-Sud, INRIA
Rocquencourt), with an Open Source implementation in OCaml.  We are
looking for candidates with a good profiency in OCaml and some
interest in XML-related technologies. An academic background in
Computer Science would be a plus.

Several projects are possible, according to the engineer's
interest and competence. They include:

- improving CDuce packaging, documentation, developing some benchmarks,
   and a regression test suite;

- designing an infrastructure to develop web services and/or
   stateful interactive web applications in CDuce;

- redesigning the existing support for XML Schema as an external tool;

- developing real-sized examples of CDuce (or mixed CDuce/OCaml)
   applications, such as a Bug Tracking System, a Wiki, or a blog
   manager.
