ponder
     
        a non-strict polymorphic, functional language by jon
        fairbairn .
     
        ponder's type system is unusual.  it is more powerful than the
        hindley-milner type system used by ml and miranda and
        extended by haskell.  ponder adds extra recursive 'mu' types
        to those of girard's system f, allowing more general
        recursion.  surprisingly, the type system and type
        inference algorithm are still not completely understood.
