There are many interesting and less interesting improvements that can be made to the Stratego implementation. Anyone who is interested in doing some work on the [[StrategoCompiler][compiler]], the library, the XT tools, or the [[StrategoDocumentation][documentation]] is welcome. Please join the [[MailingList][stratego-dev]] mailinglist if there is something you would like to do, so that we can avoid duplication of work.
