Is there any documentation for what is coming in Clean 2.0? Specifically
will Clean 2.0 have first class modules?

Also there was a recent discussion between Pascal Serrarens and someone
else on the list comparing Clean I/O to Haskell style monadic I/O (and
the "do" notation). In this discussion something was mentioned along the
lines that Clean's I/O is the way it is so that it can support "multiple
environments". The suggestion was that since Haskell I/O did not support
multiple environments it was somehow "unsafe". I have quoted all these
things because I am not sure what is being talked about here. I was
wondering if anyone (hopefully Pascal?) could post an article/example/
reference outlining the issues.

thanks
