* Can Haskell code be integrated with .NET, in case the department should decide to base more of its software on this platform? (I have found Sigbjorn Finne's integration of Hugs with .NET, but I would prefer the native-code compilation of GHC. I remember rumors about such a project years ago when Simon PJ went to Microsoft, but didn't find anything recent about this on the Web. I found notes about the GHC/.NET integration in the Mondrian project, but that appears to be unmaintained. Correct me if I am wrong.)
The Sigbjorn Finne's .NET integration is also ported to GHC but I am not sure whether it is efficient enough. The bridge uses reflection to call .NET methods and each time when the method is called it is located by its name. I am working on simple report engine in Haskell which is callable from .NET and uses .NET classes as datasource. The solution which I choice was to build DLL in managed C++ which is called from Haskell. It is not so hard to automate this task with an apropriate tool.
