Re: [Haskell-cafe] Proposal for a standard collection of algorithms/Data structures in haskell

I am inclined more towards Boost like set of libraries.

For reference, http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_54_0/ It's not only "algorithms and data structures" - it also contains Filesystem, System, Interprocess etc. Perhaps "stable hackage" goes in this direction? http://www.yesodweb.com/blog/2012/11/stable-vetted-hackage Reading the Boost FAQ and History might prove useful, ( http://www.boost.org/users/proposal.pdf ) as perhaps the process could be emulated. One way or the other - such a plan needs dedication, but also hard resources (time, money). Looks like a task for http://industry.haskell.org/ but of course they decide where they put their money. And they do, e.g., they sponsor Hackage(2) - J.W.
