Dear Haskellers,
Can GUI programming be liberated from the IO monad? Functional Reactive Programming (FRP) promises as much, and I'm trying to make this dream a reality with my [reactive-banana][] library. Having released version 0.4.0.0, I am now looking for example programs to direct the future evolution of the library.
Do you know any *small GUI programs* that you would *like* to see *implemented with Functional Reactive Programming?*
wxAsteroids[0] seems very well suited for this; it is small and reactive. It is also well-documented, as Daan Leijen has written a paper[1], describing this game as a means to show how to use wxHaskell.
