A sane mathematical structure - or rather: sane description
of math structures in Haskell is something which worries
me for years. On this list, on funct. newsgroup and elsewhere
this is a recurring, cyclic theme.

It appears to me that we have reached some impasse
in a design of basic mathematical structure for
Haskell 2. Sergey's proposal "Basic Algebra Proposal"
is there, but for variety of reasons (a language
barrier being probably one of them) it does not seem
