This is a beautiful piece of work, Jefferson! 


And maybe a nice time to mention that Jefferson will be presenting,
along with some other leading lights in the community, at DEFUN, our
first developer-oriented workshop at ICFP.

So if the ICFP theory-heavy schedule seems a bit dry to you, consider
registering for the DEFUN tutorials, and come away having built some
beautiful code in Haskell.
