[Haskell-cafe] ANNOUNCE: feldspar-language

[Emil Axelsson]

One thing I forgot to make clear in the announcement is that the 
language is still highly experimental, and some obvious things, such as 
complex numbers, are currently missing. So this first release should 
probably not be used for real applications.

However, while I don't know how autotuning works, I don't see why you 
shouldn't be able to code it in Feldspar a few releases from now. I 
don't know if it will be "easy" though :)
