Hello, certainly I am. I think it would be great if someone might combine Haskell code with what's already written in Java (i.e. all those app servers or development environments). In the past I've given a try to LambdaVM[1][2] and it looked like a sane approach to get there. Unfortunately I'm not so power-haskell user to be able to update this patch forward to more recent GHC. I've also submitted ticket for it[3].
