Hello All For instances on UTCTime - isn't UTCTime more 'canoncial' than data-binary etc. by virtue of it being in the Hierarchical Libraries? Thus data-binary "should" provide an instance of Binary for UTCTime - rather than Time provide a Binary instance. Also, aside from cases where automatic newtype deriving would otherwise work is it, really so unpleasant to have a long-handed getUTCTime rather than an overloaded get? Best wishes Stephen
