#8177: Roles for type families -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: simonpj | Owner: goldfire Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: ⊥ Component: Compiler | Version: 7.6.3 Resolution: | Keywords: TypeFamilies Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: | Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: None/Unknown | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | Differential Rev(s): Phab:D3662 Wiki Page: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by RyanGlScott): Indeed, I will readily admit that I'm mostly parking this Diff here for Richard's sake (when he gets a chance to look at it). However, since you asked politely, I wrote up an (informal) specification of how I envision this would work [https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/Roles#Proposal:rolesfortypefamilies here], based on the conversations I've had with Richard about this topic, as well as the commentary in this ticket. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8177#comment:37 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
