The problem of naming the ehm... Standard Haskell or whatever it becomes,
seems to be very important for some members of this list. Well, OK.

Just a short story. Do you remember Cyber 205, a nice pipelined mainframe
manufactured by CDC?

It was *the* successor of Cyber 203, which was a failure.

Cyber 203 got its name because the Company decided to launch it with
great fireworks on the 2-centenary of the US. 
But ... 
So, at least they behave honestly and changed the numeric tag 
from 200 to 203.

Best regards.

PS. Perhaps the next variant of Haskell should be called "Brooks"?
    Anyway, I remind you that we have just 4 days to his aniversary.
    A week ago we had the aniversary of his death.
