I will add one more comment: perhaps the biggest thing Haskell has going for it has nothing to do with the language itself; as you noticed, it's the community. One might expect to find crusty mathematicians and dubiously social geeks(*), but in fact the Haskell community is one of the friendliest and most helpful I've encountered anywhere. (*) ironically, the person saying this is both dubiously social and an even crustier system administrator :) -- brandon s. allbery [solaris,freebsd,perl,pugs,haskell] allbery@kf8nh.com system administrator [openafs,heimdal,too many hats] allbery@ece.cmu.edu electrical and computer engineering, carnegie mellon university KF8NH
