ICQ on Haskell?

[Haoran Un]

Hi everyone,

I was wondering if anyone had written (or atempted to write) ICQ in 
Haskell?

My honours thesis project is extending Manuel Chakravarty's GTK+HS by 
placing a more functionally-friendly wrapper over the top - iHaskell. 
(see: http://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~chak/haskell/gtk/#iHaskell
and http://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~haoranun/ihaskell/)

Anyway, in an attempt to have a real-world application written with 
iHaskell, I thought I'd write yet another ICQ clone, but in Haskell.

As the point of the project is to have a nice GUI, I was wondering if 
anyone had the underlying networking code written that I could 
perchance appropriate and use for my program.

Even half-written but documented code could be useful, and I'd like o 
see what people have.

All of the stuffed would be GPLed, and you'd get your name in the 
credit (for whatever immortality that's worth).

Thanks,


Haoran
