Announcement: wxHaskell 0.1 --------------------------- <http://wxhaskell.sourceforge.net> wxHaskell is a new portable GUI library for Haskell. The goal of the project is to provide an industrial strength portable GUI library, but without the burden of developing (and maintaining) one ourselves. wxHaskell is therefore build on top of wxWindows -- a comprehensive C++ library that is portable across all major GUI platforms; including GTK, Windows, X11, and MacOS X. Furthermore, it is a mature library (in development since 1992) that supports a wide range of widgets with native look-and-feel, and it has a very active community (ranked among the top 25 most active projects on sourceforge). Since most of the interface is automatically generated from the wxEiffel binding, the current release of wxHaskell already supports about 75% of the wxWindows functionality -- about 2500 methods in 500 classes with 1200 constant definitions. wxHaskell has been build with GHC 6.0 on Windows, MacOS X and Unix systems with GTK. A binary distribution is available for Windows (and we are working on a binary release for MacOS X). And even if you don't intend to write GUI's yourself, it will be fun to check out the screenshots at <http://wxhaskell.sourceforge.net>. All the best, Daan Leijen. |

Given your impending vacation, this might not be the best time to mention it, but... I can't seem to download any files for wxHaskell from sourceforge; this is probably a misconfiguration on their part, but I thought it best to let you know as well. |

However, it downloads fine for most people here at the university. Maybe you should try a different mirror or click at the shown mirror URL directly. All the best, Daan. ps. If it still doesn't work, send me a notice today and I'll put up some local copies at my home page. (and maybe you could just reply to me personally (and/or wxhaskell-users) to reduce traffic at the main haskell list.) |

Oh, sourceforge is currently having a problem with their CVS box: From: "Jeffrey 'hemos' Bates" <he...@sl...> The CVS server has *massive* load on it. We're actually getting a CVS proxy, courtesy of San Mehat, but do not have the hardware right now to put into place. That'll go in in the next few weeks. But, yeah, most of the time, the CVS server is at astronomical loads, and continuous disk access. So, check back in a bit, and Uriah/someone else will have it working again. Just thought that people would like the reassurance that it's a known problem and there's a solution around the corner ;-) In the meantime, I guess just try again or, as Daan said, look for a mirror.
