Dear Haskellers, I've made some minor improvements of fixpoint package < http://hackage.haskell.org/package/fixpoint>. I tried to contact the original maintainer twice, but without success. The package hasn't been updated for 4 years. How should I proceed? Should I start a new fork of the package? Or is there a way how to take over an orphaned package? Thanks for help, Petr Pudlak

I should also point out that I think the (much more recent) recursion-schemes package implements everything in 'fixpoint' and a lot more besides. -Brent
Thanks Brent, that's just what I needed. I'm switching to recursion-schemes
immediately.
Best regards,
