    jdh30, the author of both comments, is a massive OCaml fanboy and Haskell hater. I've seen him try to take Haskell performance numbers and interpret them using the wrong units to m…

    Hm, I'm afraid to say that I can't find a good resource on how to write and build docs for Haskell libraries. Maybe that's a tutorial you could write once you've figured it out?! ;…
