[Haskell-cafe] Announce: A pragmatic Haskell .NET interop layer, 0.4.0

[Peter Verswyvelen]

Cool. Slightly annoying is that your interop is weak typed, and performance
might suffer because it will be using .NET reflection all the time I guess.
Do you know the Salsa binding for .NET? This aims to do strong typing. Maybe
both efforts could be combined.
