So I should upload a package with German identifiers to Hackage?
Sure, why not? The fact that I can't read it is my loss, not your fault, and there will be plenty of other German-reading Haskellers to benefit from it. I've happily worked with programs in French (not large ones (:-)).
I don’t think, it’s a good idea to have German identifiers, since Haskell’s keywords are English. On the other hand, I strongly argue that a library about Bézier curves uses the identifier Bézier, not Bezier. So non- ASCII identifiers are useful even if identifiers are in English.\
And I think that a library about Dynkin diagrams should use the identifier "Dynkin", not "Дынкин".
