Re: [Haskell-cafe] [Newbie] Quest for inheritance

Hi Ralf,

See Section 7.3 of the latest revision of "Haskell's overlooked object system". There are pointers and explanations. This discussion also clarifies that the phantom approach is tailored for foreign library and component import (but it can be generalized and has been indeed, by Burton in a paper from 1990).

Thank you for bringing us this rewrite. It is definitely worth it in my opinion. Read it once and although I need a few more reads to digest it, I could get a much better sense of what was going on. I also found it both easier to graps and more comprehensive. Thanks for this quality paper. I noticed it's still in draft stage so I conclude there'll be further revisions... Cédric
