After doing more than 150 of these, I have come to the conclusion that
it is time for me to take a permanent break from HWN. I realize that
"we could do better", and have something a bit more edited than a
collection of links, and some quotes. I wish I had more time to devote
to such endeavour, but my time is currently being taken up by trying to
help my 1 year old explore her little world.
We owe Daniel a huge debt of thanks. HWN is a huge service to the community. I have read many interesting blog posts that I would have never otherwise found. Thank
you!
We really need a successor! Please, please.

Subject: [Haskell] Haskell Weekly News: Issue 316
Welcome to issue 316 of the HWN, an issue covering crowd-sourced bits
of information about Haskell from around the web. This issue covers
from January 18 to 31, 2015
After doing more than 150 of these, I have come to the conclusion that
it is time for me to take a permanent break from HWN. I realize that
"we could do better", and have something a bit more edited than a
collection of links, and some quotes. I wish I had more time to devote
to such endeavor, but my time is currently being taken up by trying to
help my 1 year old explore her little world.
If you'd like to be the one to continue the long tradition of HWN, drop
me a line.
Thanks for following along for the last 3 years!
