How Best to Contribute? about interface-types

Nit: we're still phase 1 afaik: https://github.com/WebAssembly/proposals

The other bits that are needed in the fullness of time are:

• spec work, actually ironing out what bits we need to implement
• embedder implementations, so prototypes in v8, spidermonkey, cranelift, etc.
• separately from a test framework, individual test cases, or higher-level use cases
• it's probably also useful to have a non-C-like language implementation, e.g. integration in a functional language of some sort (like Haskell, Scheme, Elm), or a VM-based language (like Java, C#)

For Erlang/Elixir, we still need to explore how much of Rust's wasm-bindgen we will be able to use directly and how much we need to implement from scratch. If we end up not using as much wasm-bindgen or try to produce bindings that will produce Erlang strings (Elixir charlists) which are linked-lists of code points, then we may be a good test case for functional language implementation.

Oops, I was reading the threading docs and didn't realize that webIDL was phase 1. Ok, I'll look at a couple of things.
