[Haskell-cafe] ANN: reviving #haskell-ide channel

[Simon Michael]

Recently I announced a #haskell-atom IRC channel. It has been very 
quiet. Also today I'm having better success with Intellij IDEA. These 
things change..

Perhaps a channel for all IDEs & dev setups is more useful. #haskell-ide 
already exists, so I have added some links there and plan to hang out 
for a while and see if it catches on. All welcome!

/topic for #haskell-ide:
