Oh my goodness! Impressive article dude! Thank you so much, However I am experiencing issues with your RSS. I don’t know why I can’t join it. Is there anybody having identical RSS problems? Anyone that knows the answer will you kindly respond? Thanks!!

As I've written elsewhere the choice of a Haskell web framework is much less mutually exclusive than it might seem. Any of the mentioned persistence systems can be used with any of the other frameworks. In fact, ACID persistence was recently rebuilt from the ground up in an independent project completely separate from Happstack. Template systems/HTML generation can also be mixed and matched. Each of the frameworks do typically provide some glue code to make it easier to use their chosen solutions, but in my opinion the whole Haskell web ecosystem is young enough that it's not too hard to write new glue for different library combinations that gives you features comparable to what is already provided. The happstack-heist package is but one example of this.

Good post. The code snippets are unreadable though – no indentation or highlighting – why don’t you use github gists?
