The [$qq| quasiquote syntax has been deprecated since around 2010. Is there any objection to removing the backwards compatibility now? I counted 216 uses of it on hackage in a handful of packages, some in comments. http://lpaste.net/145938 Here is the commit which deprecated it - https://github.com/ghc/ghc/commit/9ba922ee06b048774d7a82964867ff768a78126e Matt

I'm all for it, if the broader community (e.g. the developers of those packages) are ok.
