+I'm torn about this idea, if it's actually serious.  I'm very comfortable programming in Perl, and have written quite a few modules for IkiWiki, and it would be a huge pain to have to start from scratch all over again.
+On the other hand, this could be a motivation for me to learn Haskell.  My only encounter with Haskell has been a brief time when I was using the Xmonad window manager, but it looks like an interesting language. Functional programming is cool.
