Nope.  Didn't see it.  But, heck... all of the sources are available, 
including build files... maybe if I ask him he'll send me the CGIs that 
generate the page, too.

Someday, they might :-)

Obviously, some people (perhaps even on this list) provided most of the 
Haskell code, but a couple of the missing items seem fairly simple (like the 
one I did), so I assumed they got bored.  At least one is excluded because 
Haskell can't complete the test within the required time limit, which 
surprised me.

Why is Ocaml so darned fast compared to Haskell?
