We have just released a new version of Mondrian, a new functional language for OO environments. This version is a prototype which targets Microsoft's new .NET platform. Mondrian is a non-strict functional language with threads, exceptions and interlanguage working - think of it as Haskell "light" with extras. Documentation is provided in the form of a paper and example programs, i.e. we haven't written proper documentation yet ;-) Also released is our first prototype of Haskell for .NET. This is a modified version of GHC which outputs an internal language which is read and compiled by the Mondrian for .NET compiler. This is the full GHC compiler but not all the Prelude is there, in particular there is no support for floats, file I/O and other odds'n'ends. This will improve over time (have you looked at the GHC Prelude, it takes time!) Both compilers, demo programs, etc. are available now from: <http://www.mondrian-script.org> You will need Windows 2000 and .NET to use this software. Have fun and feedback is welcome.
