No-one is writing a commercial Haskell compiler yet (although there is at least one commercial Haskell-like language). What I mean is, the amount of "commercial-oriented" funding spent on GHC (as opposed to the "research-oriented" funding spent by Microsoft Research and various research bodies) is, as far as I know, zero. Incentives matter. If there were a commercial Haskell compiler, maybe we would see faster progress. -- Robin _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list [email protected] http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
