Hi folks,
We have good news (nevertheless we hope) for all the lazy guys standing there.
Since their birth, lazy IOs have been a great way to modularly leverage all the
good things we have with *pure*, *lazy*, *Haskell* functions to the real world
of files.
Maybe you know of my packages lazy-io and explicit-exception which also
aim at lazy I/O and asynchronous exception handling. With lazy-io, you are
able to write more complicated things than getContents. I needed this for
HTTP communication that is run by demand. That is when the HTTP response
header is requested, then the function could send a HTTP request first. Is
it possible and sensible to combine this with safe-lazy-io?

I have also code that demonstrates the usage of explicit asynchronous
exceptions. I have however still not a set of combinators that makes
working with asynchronous exceptions as simple as working with synchronous
ones:
