Please take the State of Haskell, 2011 survey

Hi all, I've put together a quick, 12-question State of Haskell, 2011 survey: http://blog.johantibell.com/2011/07/its-time-for-this-years-state-of.html The survey will hopefully give us some insight into how people use Haskell and perhaps also some ideas on how Haskell tools and libraries could be improved. This is the second year I run this survey. New from last year are specific questions on library support and reasoning about run-time performance. P.S. Please direct replies to this email to haskell-cafe@haskell.org. Cheers, Johan

The results of this survey are now available: http://blog.johantibell.com/2011/08/results-from-state-of-haskell-2011.html Cheers, Johan

Thanks for running this again: very informative.
"We ought to be able to write a library with a Par monad for distributed
parallel algorithms."
If someone were to do this they might want to start here:
http://research.microsoft.com/en-us/um/people/simonpj/papers/parallel/monad-...
"I've started thinking about writing a medium sized tutorial, perhaps 60
pages or so, covering everything you need to know to be able to write
production quality Haskell code."
This would be such a valuable resource for the community.

+1 If you need any help with the tutorial, I might be able to help. *Beginning Scala* is reputed to be approachable by a broad range of developers and I'd be happy to try to apply my approach in *Beginning Scala* to Haskell (although, I stand in slack-jawed awe of both *Learn you a Haskell* and *Real World Haskell* which are both amazing works.)

I'd be happy to get some help. I'll let you know if I find the time to start writing it. -- Johan

Very interesting! Thanks for the effort!
