Eric suggested that I join this list.

I have been working for some years on FC++ (the old web site died recently unfortunately but there is a link to it on http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?FunctoidsInCpp ).  I have extended it a lot and also worked on a version using concepts to do the return type analysis, so I was sad when concepts were dropped from C++11 and hope they come back soon.

I have linked FC++ and Boost Lambda in the past and was working on doing the same with Boost Phoenix when it became necessary to learn about Boost Proto as well.  So here I am.

I have also been looking at some articles by Bartosz Milewski about the implementation of compile time Monads in C++, which seem to be related to Proto.  I have had a look around here and not seen anything that obviously relates to that.
