If you want another proof that Haskell is going mainstream, here is one : a Fashion Magazine developed in Haskell. And I am happy because they are using my HPDF library to generate it. The mag is created in an automatic way from the blogs of the 360Fashion Network : a network of fashion professionals who try to give an insider view of the fashion industry. So, expect to see lots of pictures blogged from mobile phones during the fashion weeks.

I am pleased to release a new version of my PDF library for Haskell and an example showing what's possible with the library : a magazine generated in an automatic way with Haskell. The parsing for the magazine has not yet been debugged totally and the image layout algorithm is currently very simple. The text formatting in columns is not always ok because I have not yet implemented an hyphenation algorithm. But, the result, still in beta, is good.
