#11080: Open data kinds -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: dmcclean | Owner: Type: feature request | Status: new Priority: low | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: | Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: None/Unknown | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | Differential Rev(s): Wiki Page: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by goldfire): The next step should be making a formal proposal on the wiki and gathering comments about concrete syntax and such. No one has yet formally volunteered to implement, though I was thinking about it. Happy to cede, though. Thanks! As a response to @dmcclean: The original `data constructor` syntax works well with GADT constructors, because the full type of the constructors is included after the `::`. I still favor my original syntax, but it already looks like I'm in the minority. :) -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/11080#comment:5 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
