A new Haskell framework for web development has emerged: Snap.

"Snap is a simple web development framework for unix systems, written in the Haskell programming language."

The website looks very nice, compared to how the presentation usually is of these kinds of new frameworks.

Two things worry me so far, under Snap Features: "An XML-based templating system for generating HTML", and the first sentence in the Snap API tutorial: "The exposed Snap API is on the same level abstraction as Java Servlets." (my emphasis).
