This article assumes too much background -- not of Haskell but of the authors prior work. It starts off: "I have a problem: How I present the few applicative and monadic combinators that I just developed."

Ummm ... which combinators? At least provide a link to the prior article that I assume introduced them. As introductions go, this article's introduction doesn't do a very good job.

You're right, he does link to the article (at least I think it's the one that is being referred to), but not until "Enter the monad" which seems later than it shoud be. Here is the link:

No, I mean "the combinators that I just developed and want to explain here".
I added a bit more context. Thanks
