[^complaints]: I can hear the wankers in the peanut gallery - "Yeah, and it's been buggy ever since!" Hush you.
Those (aforementioned) people should keep in mind we tried to keep the scope of the project down to just making the new Haddock support the features of the old Haddock (no type inference, docs for GHC extensions, etc). Most of the bugs concerning the pre-GHC subset of Haddock have now been fixed (although there are a few left). Most other problems we're currently seeing is with GHC extensions, like for instance Template Haskell.You should not blame the SoC project so much for this (although it could have handled extensions more gracefully). The project was also run in a time when the GHC API was not so evolved and had a bug or two. David
