7pm: Infrastructure for Commercial Haskell
Gregg Lebovitz, FP Complete
The benefits of Functional Programming and Haskell are well known and
often well articulated, but the steps to developing a team and project
infrastructure are still an exercise for the truly dedicated.
Leveraging the Haskell community, FP Complete is building a platform
for simplifying the process of learning practical Haskell and bringing
projects to market. This not only includes the School of Haskell[1],
but also a development and deployment environment. And all of it is
developed using Haskell.
This short talk will describe a common infrastructure necessary to
learn, develop, and deploy using Haskell. We will also touch upon our
approach to Interoperability with other platforms, and where we see
commercial Haskell heading in the near future.

8pm: One Hour ML, or How I Learned To Stop Worrying And Write An ML to
Javascript Compiler In About One Hour.
Andrew Stein
Andrew Stein, developer of the forml language[1] will lead us through
the basics of writing our own languages. In the spirit of "Write
Yourself a Scheme in 48 Hours"[2], this talk will cover the
implementation of a simple compiler for an ML like language, targeting
JavaScript. Topics covered will include the Parsec[3] parser
combinator library, the basics of a Hindley/Milner style type
inference engine, and the JMacro[4] quasiquotation language for
JavaScript generation. Stopwatches welcome!

The NY Haskell Users Group is for all programmers either interested in or
experienced with the Haskell programming language. We want to build a
community of Haskell developers in the New York area that can share
knowledge, projects, and experience, and to generally foster and encourage
strongly typed functional programming, in all languages, all settings, and
all industries. Our events will center around talks, but we intend to have
other sorts of activities, including social hours, code workshops, and
perhaps, eventually hackathons.
