[Haskell] ANNOUNCE: Haskell Communities and Activities Report (27th ed., November 2014)
On behalf of all the contributors, we are pleased to announce that the Haskell Communities and Activities Report (27th edition, November 2014) is now available, in PDF and HTML formats: http://haskell.org/communities/11-2014/report.pdf http://haskell.org/communities/11-2014/html/report.html Many thanks go to all the people that contributed to this report, both directly, by sending in descriptions, and indirectly, by doing all the interesting things that are reported. We hope you will find it as interesting a read as we did. If you have not encountered the Haskell Communities and Activities Reports before, you may like to know that the first of these reports was published in November 2001. Their goal is to improve the communication between the increasingly diverse groups, projects, and individuals working on, with, or inspired by Haskell. The idea behind these reports is simple: Every six months, a call goes out to all of you enjoying Haskell to contribute brief summaries of your own area of work. Many of you respond (eagerly, unprompted, and sometimes in time for the actual deadline) to the call. The editors collect all the contributions into a single report and feed that back to the community. When we try for the next update, six months from now, you might want to report on your own work, project, research area or group as well. So, please put the following into your diaries now: ======================================== End of April 2015: target deadline for contributions to the May 2015 edition of the HC&A Report ======================================== Unfortunately, many Haskellers working on interesting projects are so busy with their work that they seem to have lost the time to follow the Haskell related mailing lists and newsgroups, and have trouble even finding time to report on their work. If you are a member, user or friend of a project so burdened, please find someone willing to make time to report and ask them to "register" with the editors for a simple e-mail reminder in October (you could point us to them as well, and we can then politely ask if they want to contribute, but it might work better if you do the initial asking). Of course, they will still have to find the ten to fifteen minutes to draw up their report, but maybe we can increase our coverage of all that is going on in the community. Feel free to circulate this announcement further in order to reach people who might otherwise not see it. Enjoy!

Friends With each issue of the Haskell Communities and Activities Report I am freshly awed by the range and creativity of the things you are all doing with Haskell. From web frameworks to bioinformatics, from automatic differentiation to GUIs and games. Amazing stuff. I think we owe the editors, Mihai Maruseac and Alejandro Serrano Mena, a huge debt for putting it together. Thank you!
