Guys! Welcome to the Timber list. lots to do. One thing I'd like to visit is String = [Char]. Is this the right thing for Timber? We have data [a] = ... , how about data Vector a = ... where Vector is an 0 index'd array, and, String = Vector Char? Is this too much of a departure from Haskell? What parts of Haskell type classes might we want to keep? Can we simplify the hierarchy? Both of these questions relate to how much of Haskell we carry forward, and how much we change. AndyG
