<rant> Frustrating.

Its been 4 years since I seriously looked at Haskell. I would have expected that over this time, someone here would have consolidated it into a language useful for real world applications.

The Haskell in Practice page is shockingly short and many of the examples are not actually Haskell in practice.

Does anyone here eat the Haskell dog food or is this all just fooling around (basic reasearch)?

Simon, why did you write the Haskell web server?

1. To show that it could be done 2. Because it was fun, and 3. So I could write a paper about it Note that this list does *not* include 4. So I could use it However, several people have found the web server useful and are using it, either as the basis of further research, or in some cases as the basis for a real production web server. It isn't a production web server, as you noticed, but it's a start. Cheers, Simon
