Haskell's time has come.

A post in O'Reilly Radar pointed me to the kick-off of an "open book" project regarding Haskell, one of the more notable functional programming (or data flow programming) languages.  My recent conversations with Tim Oren have renewed my interest in data flow / functional programming in support of complex modeling applications.  (Truth be told -- my role as an advisor to Vextec also plays a big part in that renewed interest.)
