Hello All,
Thank you for your wonderful replies.

Tasks that I am interested in:
a) Support for Python DSLs
b) Python wrappers for all existing algorithms
c) GPU support
d) Perftest : automated performance tests of algorithms

I am also willing to work on the tasks that SystemML community think are
important.

Regards,
Krishna
