I spoke to a faculty member in a decent Computer Science department in which no one has ever done anything related to FP. (You may say that is an inherent contradiction, but what can I do, the department does have a good reputation. I am withholding names to protect the innocent.) This faculty member happens to be the one who was forced to teach the single programming languages course offered by the department, due to his having the least seniority in the department. As such, he is now actually starting to become a bit interested in FP and Haskell. I gave him a few links to Haskell resources, which he appreciated. But coming from more of a pragmatic non-research point of view, I didn't really know what to say. The best I could do was to point him to the Haskell Wikibook, and to the "Why FP Matters" paper. I would like some links that would give such a person a nice overview of the various active areas of FP-related research these days, leaning towards Haskell. I want to give him a fairly broad view of what is interesting and exciting, why various topics are important, where to find ideas for collaboration and applications to other areas, etc. I actually know about a few departments like that. This could be a good strategy for drumming up more research interest in Haskell. In some cases, the person in question has already been influenced somewhat by the lisp fanatics, so I would like some help in how to deal with that also. Thanks, Yitz
