The only copies in print right now are at Yale. We expect to be releasing a slightly revised report with many small language cleanups soon. The only Haskell compiler available right now is the Haskell-B system which comes with lml. With some luck, we expect to release the Yale Haskell compiler next week. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Announcing The Haskell Report Version 1.0 1 April 1990 The Haskell Committee, formed in September 1987 to design a "common" non-strict purely functional language, has (finally) completed its work and wishes to announce a Report about the language. Several preliminary versions of the Report were released to get feedback, and many changes have been incorporated since the first release in December '88. The current release will remain STABLE for at least one year.

All of the files are in compress format; to uncompress them type "uncompress <filename>" at the Unix shell. The report is over 100 pages long and has been formatted for double-sided copying.
