In case anyway was worried, I *have* been following this thread, and
purposely not sticking my nose in to see what people's opinions are.
I've really appreciated the discussion; let me give my overall
response to everything:

OK, after reviewing the list again, here's some more that are on the
chopping block, given the new outlook we've been establishing here.
Speak up if you want it saved:
Denotational design
Programming using Arrows
Transactional business applications development
Categorical Programming

There's only two skills which I think absolutely must go:
Other languages I know: C# .NET, XSLT, Microsoft SQL Server, XML, SQL,
CSS, C, C++, Java, HTML, Visual Basic Script, Pascal, Rexx, Basic and
assembler

I'd be interested in how many Haskellers refer to Category Theory here, and
how many to other mathematical subjects. :-)
I for one refer to other stuff;

Again, Tool Authoring is too broad to be useful.
Who are the skills lists for?
Recruiters, other Haskellers to form strike forces, something else?
For the recruiters I think they are somewhat obscure unless Well-Typed

I have my own opinions on a lot of these
I just want to throw out 2 extreme case solutions to think about while this
problem doesn't really seem to be heading anywhere:
1) Drop the skills options in favor of the simple text box already in use.
This would of course would have a big impact on attempting to search for

Alright, adding skills is now only possible by an admin. In the place
where we previously had add a skill, we now have request a new
skill. That's the easy part. Now we need to determine which skills
stay, and which ones go. I think the vast majority of them are fine,
so I'll leave them at the end
Hey JP,
It's a tough question you're asking. I think areas directly applicable
with Haskell, such as bioinformatics, games, physics simulations, are
a pretty easy yes. Some more complicated things would be related
skills, such as knowing other programming languages, system
administration, etc. I

There are 11 skills I'm leaning towards dropping, all because they
