That's not really true. Just use CAL from the Open Quark framework... It's almost Haskell 98, with some extras, and compiles to fast JVM code. http://openquark.org/Open_Quark/Welcome.html
<http://openquark.org/Open_Quark/Welcome.html>They even seem to do all kinds of advanced optimizations - like converting tail calls to loops - to get good Java performance. And they have a better record system, a graphical environment to learn it, etc. So I think CAL should be in the list, and since it's basically Haskell... On Sun, Sep 27, 2009 at 6:36 PM, John A.
