So where is it? When do I get cool web 2.0 features in my BBS?

Look at that Haskell idiot and laugh

There are quite a few libraries that try and provide more convenient ways of dealing with monad transformers (typically using those defined in transformers so as to avoid re-defining them all the time and to provide inter-compatibility): the old standard of mtl, the type-family variant found in monads-tf, the more ambitious layers package and Roman Cheplyaka’s monad-classes work.

However, I found that none of the libraries I could find really satisfied me.

So monad transformers are so convenient that there are a ton of libraries for them and none of them is satisfying? Boy, do we love monads! Sure beats those imperative idiots who can do stuff without bothering with "monad stacks" and "layers of transformers", right?
