Quite probably, I wasn't able to test the changes before sending the pull request and probably missed that one because it was the first thing I changed. I can make the change and resubmit if you like.

\making concurrent programming much easier to think about than most languages; \
\the type of a piece of code tells you whether it is safe to run concurrently \
\with other code. Its flagship compiler, GHC, comes with a high-\
\performance parallel garbage collector and light-weight concurrency \
\library containing a number of useful concurrency primitives and \
\abstractions."
