Conor, is Epigram currently under development?
We've even stopped working on the engine and started working on the chassis. I'm in an intensive teaching block until the end of April, but from May it becomes Priority. The "Reusability and Dependent Types" project studentship will hopefully bring an extra pair of hands, come October.
This sounds good!
I don't see any conflict -- indeed I see considerable synergy -- in working simultaneously on the experimental frontier of dependent type systems and on the pragmatic delivery of their basic benefits via a much more established language like Haskell. Indeed, I think we'll learn more readily about the engineering realities of developing applications with dependent types by doing plenty of the latter.
This makes sense indeed. Best wishes, Wolfgang
