I've just posted an explanation of the Cat type system as it compares to Joy, and why functions and lists aren't the same types. I also go on to discuss a proposed extension to the Cat type system to allow functions to be implicitly cast to lists where needed. The resulting semantics are a bit different than those of Joy but I am hopeful readers will find it satisfactory. The post is at: http://cdiggins.com/2007/03/24/the-types-of-functions-and-lists-in-joy-and-cat/ Please let me know if anything is unclear, or I have made any mistakes with regards to Joy. Thanks Christopher, http://cdiggins.com
