I've just uploaded deepseq-1.0.0.0 to Hackage

This provides a DeepSeq class with a deepseq method, equivalent to the existing NFData/rnf in the parallel package. I'll be using this in a newly revamped parallel package, which I hope to upload shortly.

Any reason for the name change? I liked "normal form" being part of NFData and rnf . Regards, apfelmus -- http://apfelmus.nfshost.com
