Several people have adapted and further developed HWS: http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/Applications_and_libraries/Web_programming#Web_servers http://darcs.haskell.org/hws/ http://www.informatik.uni-freiburg.de/~thiemann/WASH/ (WSP) There is also a mailing list dedicated to Haskell and Web development: http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/web-devel _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
