ATS used to be discussed quite a lot on HN

MLton and Felix would be two other ML inspired languages that whole program optimizes to generate fast code.

Looks interesting. Actively developed : https://github.com/githwxi/ATS-Postiats

edit: You are right, I did not know there was a third version. If only this thing had release notes. I have no idea the current state of the language is. Hongwei, if you're listening!

If this language is going to be a thing it needs community development.
