Yeah, we've concentrated so far on the serialisation of Haskell values, not reading/writing externally defined binary formats. I don't think we've been especially clear on that. But we do intend to tackle both.
Speaking for myself, I certainly didn't realise you were intending to solve these two different problems. Serialisation and binary data access are clearly quite different issues (though it makes sense for the one to layer on the other). Perhaps you should (a) be clearer in your propaganda and (b) give the two parts different names? Jules
