#12404: Document version availability for each language extension -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: dfeuer | Owner: Type: feature | Status: new request | Priority: normal | Milestone: 8.2.1 Component: Documentation | Version: 8.0.1 Keywords: | Operating System: Unknown/Multiple Architecture: | Type of failure: Documentation Unknown/Multiple | bug Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: Differential Rev(s): | Wiki Page: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- A certain amount of "historical" information about language extensions is of sufficient practical utility to deserve a place in the GHC documentation. I believe that the documentation for each language extension should include 1. The GHC version in which it first appeared. 2. Any major changes that have been made to the extension since the previous major-major version. For example, the GHC 8.x.x documentation for any given language extension should include any major changes to it since 7.0.1. At present, the only way I see to get this information is to dig through previous versions of the documentation and change logs, which is rather inefficient. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/12404 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
