Hello,
I would like to add questions to yours. I'm not sure that C++ programs
are same performance as C actually, so I can have a bad logic.
How much is hard to port a haskell program to C ?
If it will become harder and harder, (i.e. for parallelizations) than
it's fair to choose haskell for

I'm happy to announce the first, experimental version of the

Its goal is to simplify working with time and date data structures in

Version 2.0.7 of protocol-buffers (3 packages) has been uploaded to hackage.
This makes it compile with
ghc-7.4.1 and handle missing package names better.
