Re: [Haskell] haskell.org migration complete

By the way,

Until http://haskell.org/gtk2hs is restored, many links in
http://haskell.org/haskellwiki/Gtk2Hs are broken.

That's provider stupidity.

To the customer. Think about it for a minute. What if you want to
run a mailinglist, and gazillions of mail providers start bouncing
(or even just quarantining, without you even noticing) mails from
your list server? Or even some complain about too many rcpt-to
entries, whereas others complain about too many consecutive connections
(which happens if you reduce the number of recipients per smtp
session to mitigate the former problem)?

Ciao,

[Haskell] ANNOUNCE: Sifflet visual programming language, release 1.2.2

[gdweber]

Sifflet and sifflet-lib 1.2.2 are now available on Hackage.

Sifflet is a visual, functional programming language
and support system for students learning about recursion.
Sifflet programmers define functions by drawing diagrams,
and the Sifflet interpreter uses diagrams to show how the
function calls are evaluated.

Sifflet-lib is the library containing many modules of the sifflet 
application.

What's New
--

-   December 3, 2010: Version 1.2.2 provides a little safety for users 
who close the main (Workspace) window. The application now offers to
save a file, if there are changes, and quits.
-   November 19, 2010: Version 1.2.1 (previously unannounced) provides 
compatibility with the latest Haskell GTK packages 
(gtk and friends version 0.12).

About Sifflet
-

Sifflet is a visual, functional programming language
intended as an aid for learning about recursion.

*   A picture explains Sifflet better than words:
please see the screenshot showing how to evaluate 3!:
http://mypage.iu.edu/~gdweber/software/sifflet/home.html

*   Features:
-   Visual editor.
-   Visual tracer/debugger which shows how recursive and
other function calls are evaluated.  To support active learning
and avoid screen clutter, Sifflet displays only
as much of the computation as the user requests.
-   A carefully crafted tutorial with 31 pictures and about as many pages.
-   Number, string, and list data types.
-   A small collection of primitive functions.
-   Runnable examples of compound functions.
-   Sifflet functions can be "exported" to Scheme,
Python 3, and Haskell.
