There's at least one financial firm that chose Haskell and presented good results from it. Galois works miracles with Haskell left and right. So, there's a slow build-up of momentum in that direction. I'm hesitant to use it due to the learning curve. I have a feeling I could probably get productive in Ocaml faster than in Haskell. I figure I would learn them in that order.
Not sure if that's true as I use neither and only did minimal functional programming in LISP. I mostly do an imperative style along lines of Cleanroom methodology. I'd like to hear veterans' opinions as to whether Ocaml's learning curve would be easier on imperative programmers than Haskell.
