And while we're asking questions, is there any possibility of seeing the
results of their final projects? I'd be interested to see what good and
bad bits of Dylan design and style they came up with (bearing in mind the
goals of your course, e.g., functional programming), what they found easy
and hard to understand, any language gotchas they hit etc. I realise you
and/or they might want to keep these copyright or whatever but I thought I
might as well ask :-)
