[Haskell-cafe] Summer of Code idea: Haskell Web Toolkit

Hi,
I'm really looking forward to helping in the Summer of Code, if Haskell
goes into it this year (something I take for granted :). I would like to
propose an idea for a project, and I'm looking for suggestions about
whether it's good, should be improved or it's just unfeasible.

My idea is to make a client-side Haskell Web Toolkit, in the spirit of
Google Web Toolkit, which would allow to program in Haskell the client part
of a web application, and would complement the web frameworks already
existing for Haskell (such as Yesod and Snap). The point is coming about
with a Haskell-ish way to program applications, to reuse all the existing
knowledge for our beloved language.

I've added more details in a pre-proposal in Google Docs, available in
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1FnTNO9uTobDHRTDXWurKns7vGTjeauw0nRhbtt6vavs/edit
Tell me if you prefer to see it in other format, but I didn't want to
generate a bigger e-mail.

Thanks in advance.
