[Haskell-cafe] Supporting The Haskell Foundation

Hey everyone, apologies for the subject of the email here. I inadvertently
said "Haskell Foundation" instead of Haskell.org.

The Haskell Foundation and Haskell.org are separate entities, and while
several of us on the haskell.org committee have been working closely with
the foundation, we do remain an independent entity serving the haskell
community. I merely got some wires crossed when drafting the title for the
email.

Thanks,
~Rebecca Skinner on behalf of the haskell.org committee
