However, until better technical support is implemented (not just for GHC, but also jhc, UHC,...) it's best to follow social practice.
Wren, I am new to Haskell and not aware of all of the conventions. Is there a place where I can find information on these social practices? Are they documented some place?
Not that I know of, though they're fairly standard for any open-source programming community. E.g., when it comes to module names: familiarize yourself with what's out there; try to fit in with the patterns you see[1]; don't intentionally clash, steal namespaces[2], or squat on valuable territory[3]; be reasonable and conscientious when interacting with people.
The following page gives you some idea of the module names: http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/Hierarchical_module_names An overview of pages about programming style: http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/Category:Style Regards, Henk-Jan van Tuyl -- http://Van.Tuyl.eu/ http://members.chello.nl/hjgtuyl/tourdemonad.html Haskell programming --
