Friends Here are the notes I took from session 2 of the Haskell Implementors Meeting. The bolding is my choice of emphasis. Simon * Doc bugs. Two kinds o Typos. Friction stops me o Explanations needed e.g. read/show * Lightweight pushes * Make user manual into its own repo, to make it easier to take pull requests. But that makes it harder when making synchronised changes to GHC and user manual. * Auto-push: Ability to push to Phab and have it committed automatically if it validates. * Style guides. Is having a defined style solving a problem we don't really have? One piece of guidance: adhere to the style of the surrounding code. Low priority. * Docker images. We should have one. * Remove old documentation! * Cross compilation is difficult. * Have a GHC StackOverflow on haskell.org (Jacob Zalewski jakzale@gmail.commailto:jakzale@gmail.com offers to do this! - thank you). It has a useful new Documentation feature. Eg this would be good for "how do I look up a RdrName to get a Name... there seem to be six different functions that do that".
