[Haskell-cafe] lecture notes for Finally Tagless - benefit of explicit fix combinator

[Stephen Tetley]

Hi Günther

The code in the two serialize modules looks very close to Konstantin
Laufer's functional variation of the visitor pattern:

This open recursion style - is used to get "inheritance" /
extensibility - there is a more recent paper by Bruno Oliveira, Tom
Schrijvers and William Cook here:

Best wishes
