Since the opening of this thread by Hal Daume 11 (binary), we see a constant flow of interesting contributions/confessions. Plenty of applications, it seems that Haskell is really used in a wider context than we might think. It is a pleasure to read all this.
I have just one question thus. Why the application-oriented papers devoted to Haskell at ICFP, including the Haskell workshop are rather rare?
People are reluctant to contribute, or the reviewers are not so fascinated?
(Well, it happened once to me, but it had *nothing to do with Haskell*, and nothing to do with ICFP, just some other workshop, elsewhere. Simply a BTW remark. One reviewer wrote: "this is just an application work, not a scientific paper". Presumably this reviewer has his particular visions what a science is, but I don't believe that such people dominate in the milieu of FPL. I believe that it would be interesting to organize some workshops on "practical" applications of functional programming...)
