Hallo Jan-Willem, Hallo all, Thanks for the clarification first. And coming to your statement > We've certainly looked to the FP community for inspiration in many aspects of the language > is there anything planned to advice programmers what use Haskell, to code in Fortress. The document what I have in mind in this direction is a Introduction in Lisp for Python programmer. http://norvig.com/python-lisp.html
