[Jeremy Shaw]

Hello,

I poked at it a bit, but don't have anything especially interesting to  
say.

Obviously, I would like it if there was ways to do things like map  
integers to newtyped values. Or to allow the use of 'variables' other  
than strings and ints. But, I am not actually clear that those things  
can be implemented :)

Once I actually try to use quasi for a project I will likely have more  
feedback.
