Jonas,
i just got back from a week of Guitar on Raft Island. So, i just saw this
message. If you want any help, design review, code review, peanuts from the
peanut gallery, just give me a shout. Also, i wanted to reiterate that i
think you can also provide an annotation-style solution over the top of a
monadic solution -- which i think would solve some concerns Josh might have
raised (if my music-addled brain has grasped them). i'm looking forward to
see what you come up with.
Best wishes,
--greg
