As do I. Galois hosts and maintains the main repositories for the open 
source Glasgow Haskell Compiler (ghc, the canonical Haskell compiler) 
and Hackage, the Haskell CPAN.

Galois engineers have released and maintain several useful Haskell

Late last year, Galois also released HaLVM, a port of the Haskell 
runtime for barebones Xen, allowing Haskell programs written for the 
HaLVM run natively on Xen, without any intervening operating system.
