[Haskell-cafe] ANNOUNCE: Sifflet visual programming language, release 1.0!

Thanks for the report!

It surprises me that curl is a problem.
I see on the curl web site there are multiple versions
for Windows:

   http://curl.haxx.se/download.html

Have you tried installing any of those?  If so, and it still doesn't work,
could you be more specific about why not?

I think the dependency on curl comes through my using hxt 
to process the SiffML XML files --
it's unfortunate, because Sifflet doesn't really need curl
for what it's doing: because all the XML files are local,
there's no need for network access.  HXT is rather a *large* package!
