Hi all, I wanted to remove `fibon` (from `nofib`) - it's broken, abandoned upstream (no commits in 5 years) and I'm not aware of anyone using it or working on it. At this point I don't think it makes sense to try to revive it - I'd prefer putting the time/effort into getting a few new benchmarks. There were already discussions about removing it in https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/11501 If someone is actually working on getting it to work again, please shout! Thanks, Michal PS. I've tried uploading the patch to Phab, but I think it's just too large (arc is crashing). So I've uploaded it to github: https://github.com/michalt/nofib/tree/fibon
