wxHaskell intends to get into the Haskell Platform, but it needs more 
manpower. You can help!

I'm actively working on FRP and have released the library

   http://hackage.haskell.org/package/reactive-banana

If you have any suggestions, questions, needs for learning material, 
write me an email. Try the package and the developer blog

http://apfelmus.nfshost.com/blog.html#functional-reactive-programming-frp

and tell me of your learning journey; I'll figure out whether I should 
create a written tutorial, video tutorial or something else to help 
understand FRP.


The package

   http://hackage.haskell.org/package/reactive-banana-wx

includes a tiny working example for  wxHaskell .
