Btw, I wouldn't subscribe to Andrew's opinion that "there isn't a lot of functional (or even declarative) software engineering experience out there.".
Just to clarify: I meant to emphasise the _declarative_ part rather than the functional part. There are plenty of LISP engineers, for example. However, I stand by the rest of it, as far as crude generalisations go. There's a lot of functional _programming_ happening, but not very much _engineering_. I hope everyone understands the difference. Cheers, Andrew Bromage
