(IMHO "cafe" is too vague.) "cafe" has the pleasing connotation that people new to the Haskell fora should feel free to post their questions without fearing that they're bothering the important business of the list of whatever - it makes it very obviously a friendly, open forum. -- Mark ___ Haskell-Cafe mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
