  Yeah, I think that thing has been dead for awhile. Also it
  does a lot more than I want -- I don't want to write my UI
  logic in Haskell at present. The AJAX toolkits are pretty good
  and it would be a waste to try to translate them into Haskell
  and keep them updated.

  I would like to be able to write a lot of supporting code in
  Haskell, though -- like parsers. Actually, parsers are really
  all I care about at present.
