Simon,
The attached posting to the fp mailing list, dated 2 April 1990,Can anyone remember when the Haskell mailing list first opened? Does anyone have an archive that goes right back to the beginning? included the announcement of the new haskell mailing list. Colin R |

Several preliminary versions of the Report were released to get feedback, and many changes have been incorporated since the first release in December '88. The current release will remain STABLE for at least one year. You may get the report via anonymous FTP: from Yale: from Glasgow: ftp nebula.cs.yale.edu ftp cs.glasgow.ac.uk (or ftp 128.36.13.1) login: anonymous login: guest password: anonymous password: <your username> type binary type binary cd pub/haskell-report cd <FP>haskell-report get report-1.0.tar.Z get report-1.0.tar.Z get report-1.0.dvi.Z get report-1.0.dvi.Z get report-1.0.ps.Z get report-1.0.ps.Z quit quit The .tar file contains the source document in Unix tape archive format; alternatively the .dvi or .ps files may be used for printing only. All of the files are in compress format; to uncompress them type "uncompress <filename>" at the Unix shell. The report is over 100 pages long and has been formatted for double-sided copying. Alternatively, you may get a hard copy by: Sending $10 to: Sending 5 pounds to: The Haskell Project The Haskell Project Department of Computer Science Department of Computing Science Yale University University of Glasgow Box 2158 Yale Station Glasgow G12 8QQ New Haven, CT 06520 USA SCOTLAND Two implementations of Haskell will soon be available, one built at the University of Glasgow, the other at Yale University. Watch this space for announcements. Finally, we hope to fix, improve and clarify the current Haskell design through graceful evolution and with your help. To this end, several mailing lists have been set up: 1) A common mailing list for general discussions about Haskell. This list is reachable in one of two ways: [EMAIL PROTECTED] or [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2) To be added to the above mailing list, or to inquire about the implementation status of Haskell, send mail to either: [EMAIL PROTECTED] or [EMAIL PROTECTED] (whichever is the nearer site to you). 3) The implementation efforts at Glasgow and Yale will have their own mailing lists for users of the respective systems. These will be announced at the time the implementations are released.
