[Haskell-cafe] OpenShift a free PaaS from RedHat

[Michael Snoyman]

Hi Kashyap,

I'm not sure if it will solve the problem, but I ran across a tool[1]
the other day that bundles up applications with all of the libraries
and other resources they need. I wouldn't be surprised if, with this,
you can get your code to run on OpenShift.
