If it was on the fplangc mailing list, the archive exists somewhere (Thomas Johnsson had it in the past). If it was at one of the committee meetings, Thomas or Lennart had a tape recorder running. I remember asking some time later what happened to this and got a reply that contained the phrase "teknisk missöde", which doesn't take much of a grasp of Swedish to guess the meaning of. -- Jón Fairbairn jon.fairba...@cl.cam.ac.uk _______________________________________________ Haskell-prime mailing list Haskell-prime@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-prime
