I'm a little involved in the French Xebia blog (as a replyer and Tapestry 5 evangelist), and I discover the English version with this post, which is quite good :) OK, actually, as I'm as convinced as you of the benefits of functional programming (a long time ago, I used to like OCaml and Coq ;), I'm not the most objective reader for this post :) So, this session seems to have been quite good, and it's a delight to see that Haskel (and Scala) are gaining momentum - ok, momentum in the "common" developer and manager circle (academia and sharp dev konw about that for... hum... 40 years ?) Well, that's a long reply with little information just to say : thank you for this post, it was a really nice reading :) Hello !
