While that may be true, I read the original email as merely referring to the explicit annotation of types (where they are customarily neither seen nor written) as a particular pedagogical approach for new students, something which has much to recommend for. Which seems miles away from what you're alluding to. Full-blown type-level programming? Operational semantics at the type-level? I'm not sure. -- Kim-Ee _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
