This is a very interesting idea. I consider it to be a long shot compared to "just" writing haskell code to perform these tasks, so I don't think it's a priority, except if someone is willing to work on this. But I'd already be quite satisfied with a more complete and uniform "framework" for mathematics in haskell.<br>

I know that someone has created a Haskell interpreter for lisp.<br>
Perhaps this could server as a starting pointing to creating a<br>
translator between lisp and haskell. This is relevant with regards to<br>
computer algebra because the computer algebra system Maxima is written<br>
is lisp. Their is also a repository of AI programs which are written<br>
in lisp. No doubt starting from scratch with haskell would create new<br>
possibility but it would be nice to also be able to utilize existing<br>
work.<br>
