Re: [Haskell-cafe] ANNOUNCE: Haskell in the Cloud (http://quid2.org)
Hello Sean, thanks for taking the time to road test quid2.org. And believe me, I totally feel your pain :-) I have just started using it in earnest myself (following the great eat you own dog food principle) and I know how frustrating the whole experience is. However, I am working on it daily and things will improve. Now to come to the points raised in your post: 1) Don't try to use the browser's back button No support for history yet, but is on the todo list. 2) understand the errors They should know look a bit better but there is still a lot of work to do. 3) * Save (with Cmd-S on Mac or Ctrl-S on other systems) before clicking View. * Wait for the done part at the end of the Saving new source message. Sometimes, it doesn't save. Saving is now automatic and you can switch between Edit and View mode without losing your data. You should also see less saving errors. 4) * Don't assume that your saved module is the one being compiled/interpreted. You may want to do a browser refresh to be sure. In one attempt, I produced the following: abcd = abc (where = maps the term on the left to the value on the right) after adding the 'd' to the string and saving the file. There are still inconsistencies when a module is modified, it is next on my todo list. 5) For some reason, the explicit String type is needed for this (minimal) example: concat [a,b,c,d] :: String This is because the OverloadString extension is always active. In the Subject.Quid2.Language module there is now a guide to the differences between standard Haskell and Quid2's own flavour. Keep the feedback coming !

Re: [Haskell-cafe] ANNOUNCE: Haskell in the Cloud (http://quid2.org)
Hi David, no there is no direct relationship to distributed haskell. Quid2's focus is not so much on extending Haskell itself and its runtime to work in a distributed fashion but rather to provide a global naming system for functional values. Very similar to the Web, whose main innovation is to provides a global naming system for all kind of resources that previously had only local names (/dir/myfile versus http://ww.myserver.com/myfile). A description of Quid2 architecture will soon be available and it will be clearer how is meant to work. It will be far from complete, a working functional web will only emerge if many different ideas converge in a coherent whole.
