[Haskell-cafe] Suggestion for Network.Socket in regards to PortNumber

[Job Vranish]

A search in google images for sockets state diagram comes up with some
relatively good ones
http://images.google.com/images?hl=en&um=1&sa=3&q=sockets+state+diagram&btnG=Search+images
Most of them are just the TCP connection state logic, but I'm sure I'd find
others there if I looked closer.
