I just found this email for the first time.
It seems to have slipped through the cracks of my email filing somehow.

I'm currently working on a Haskell implementation of the Twisted.spread from
http://www.twistedmatrix.com/

I think my Haskell skills will be worthy of writing "real" code after I've
completed that.

Anyone still subsribed to this list?

I'm interested in porting the Object I/O lib, but my skills are not yet worthy.
