Info about another API for IB written in Haskell #2

Hi Robert,

it's great to see another API for IB that is written in Haskell coming forward! Just in case you haven't seen it already, there is another implementation by cmahon: https://github.com/cmahon/interactive-brokers . Maybe you want to join forces to build and maintain only one API, or is there a reason you're building your own?

Best regards, Thomas

Hi Thomas, Thanks for the feedback! The idea for the Haskell IB api started for me several years ago when no others existed. It was always something I wanted to get around to doing and just never had the time. When I finally sat down and started putting it together, I found cmahon's IB-API. I decided it would be a fun Haskell exercise to do anyway, and I also didn't really want to use pipes (just out of personal preference).
