    initial v1  
    1 xmonad is a [http://www.ohloh.net/tags/haskell popular] Haskell open source project, with many users. This project would seek to integrate "compositing" support. Compositing is the use 3D hardware accelaration to provide window effects, such as in the Apple "expose" functionality, and Compiz, an unix window manager supporting compositing effects.

    33By reusing the compositing libraries provided by "compiz", binding to them from Haskell, and integrating compositing hooks into xmonad, we could hope to write effects in Haskell, for the window manager.

    77The initial goal would be to bind to the basic library, providing a simple effect (such as shadowing), and then extend the supported effects as necessary.
