Hello Vasys,
I am quite interested in concurrency and Haskell.
I appreciate your effort, and I would like the URLs, if you don't mind.
Can you elaborate on your statement "IMO a gauntlet has been thrown down to
the Haskell world here."? Are you implying that this is an opportunity for
Haskell and concurrency? Or, that Haskell is going to be passed by?
Thank you.

IMO a gauntlet has been thrown down to the Haskell world here.
