Are there any compiler development forums?

I am interested in in joining an already established compiler or interpreter development project but I haven't found any useful resources so far. I'm looking for something that has a smallish development team and where the work will be substantial (i.e. not working on bug fixes). SourceForge of course has a lot of projects but it definitely takes a while to find what projects are still active and might still fit. So that's why I was thinking about possible forums that might have something. I searched on Google but didn't really find anything.

Thanks ahead of time for anyone's input

From stackoverflow
  • Try usenet. comp.compilers

    Eli Bendersky : very low traffic and moderated, so don't expect a vibrant community there
  • We need substantial help on the c-- project. There is so much to do you can practically write your own ticket: are you interested in front ends, code generators, optimizations, garbage collector, or run-time systems?
