Yes.  I'll repost in this mailing-list the comments I sent you in private.

I cannot code in Haskell, but I packaged Shadok for the Debian GNU/Linux
 distribution (i386 and amd64).  I am just waiting for a version number
to upload them on a public repository...

I started to convert in Cosmogol the state machines in RFC 3261.  I also
have somewhere the state machine for draft-ietf-behave-rfc3489bis-05.

Do you plan to have some sort of repository of Cosmogol state machines
for IETF protocols publicly available?
