Hello, for a project I decided to use Acid-State and IxSet, and was pretty happy with them. I enjoyed working with Haskell structures for storing and querying data, and my data could fit in memory. However, now I've moved to GHC 7.10, and for example syb-with-class, a dependency of ixset, does not build with template-haskell 2.10. So I'm wondering, are these projects still alive and kicking? Are if I want some memory based storage and indexing, should I look at some other projects (maybe VCache http://hackage.haskell.org/package/vcache). Or is it just bad timing and GHC 7.10 compatible versions of these libraries are in the works?
Indeed it seems like syb-with-class is a bit stagnant. For what it's worth I've moved the source to a Git repository [1] along with fixes allowing it to compile on GHC 7.10 (although with a slight loss of sharing which may or may not be recovered by the optimizer). sanzhiyan or Simon, do you think you could have a look at these changes and push them to Hackage if you find them acceptable? I would also be happy to take over maintenance if that is preferred. Cheers, - Ben [1] https://github.com/bgamari/syb-with-class
