        Hello,
        My name is Artem Luzyanin, I am a student in a college, and I am currently taking a Software Portability and Optimization course. Our project for the course is to optimize a some part of a software for  aarch64 architecture, and I would really like to contribute to PostgreSQL community with that matter. I am not particularly interested to participate in GSoC program, as I am doing is specifically for the course, but I can apply for it as well, depending on the requirements. If I should be communicating through a different mailing list, please let me know!
        In terms of my knowledge, I am proficient with both SQL and C, and I have written programs on Assembler for aarch64, so I strongly believe I am capable of trying my hands on some architecture-specific optimization. Having said that, I would really like to discuss with one of the community members about possible parts of the code that could be in need of such reworking. If no such parts are knows, I would like to see if I could find them myself, although it could take a substantial amount of time, so any input is welcome!

        Thank you in advance and all the best,

        Artem
