Hi, is anyone planning on putting out a new release sometime soon? The punters are begging for it.
Johan and I talked about this at the weekend - we hope to get one out asap. I'm putting an HGL distrib together (so we can be sure it works this time!). The Hugs distrib-building process will need tweaked for the enlarged hslib story. (Is anyone out there using the libs in their day to day work? I occasionally use a few but I really haven't tested the rest at all thoroughly.) I doubt I'll have a chance to make the ffi compatible with GHC anytime this month. [Telling your boss you are planning to leave the country has a way of upping your workload.] (HsFFI is missing, foreign label may be buggy (see hugs-users today), some ffi types may not be supported, never been tried with hsc2hs). The hierarchial module extension should be tested - can Simon or Julian point us at a suitable testsuite? -- Alastair Reid reid@cs.utah.edu http://www.cs.utah.edu/~reid/
