\section*{hscolour-1.6}
Malcolm Wallace announced HsColour, a popular syntax-highlighter for Haskell code. It can generate ANSI terminal colour codes, HTML, and CSS, and can insert hyperlink anchors for function definitions (useful in conjunction with Haddock). HsColour-1.6 is now available. The major addition is a new LaTeX output mode.
 
\section*{Dimensional: Statically checked physical dimensions}
Björn Buckwalter announced version 0.1 of Dimensional, a module for statically checked physical dimensions. The module facilitates calculations with physical quantities while statically preventing e.g. addition of quantities with differing physical dimensions.
 
\section*{vty 2.0}
Stefan O'Rear announced a new major version of vty. Differences from 1.0 include: vty now uses a record type for attributes, instead of bitfields in an Int; vty now supports setting background colors; you can now explicitly specify 'default' colors; vty now supports Unicode characters on output, automatically setting and resetting UTF-8 mode.
 
\section*{'Lambda Revolution' tshirts}
Paul Johnson announced the creation
of a new Haskell tshirt, on the theme of 'The Lambda Revolution'. Tshirts are available from CafePress, and the designs are freely available.

\section*{Functional programming at Jane Street Capital}
Yaron Minsky announced that Jane Street Capital is again looking to hire some top-notch functional programmers. Of particular note is that Jane Street Europe Ltd. now has an office in London, and we are particularly interested in hiring someone for that office with strong systems administration skills in addition to experience with functional programming languages. The ideal candidate has: a commitment to the practical, experience with functional programming languages (such as Haskell). Applicants should also have experience with UNIX and a deep understanding of computers and technology and a strong mathematical background.

\section*{Quotes}
\begin{itemize}
\item \emph{cjeris} It's amazing what some languages do to make thinking impossible, seemingly justified by the assumption that no one thinks anyway, so it's more important to make non-thinking programming as easy as possible.
\item \emph{glguy} In true Haskell form, after I realized what I was actually doing... all my functions melted down to about 2 lines each
