SYB/Generics documentation inaccessible
I have tried to access a few of the documents on generics that are referred to from wikipedia, from the GHC documentation, from hackage and from the wiki. These documents (on vu.nl, subdirectory boilerplate and strafunski) are apparently forbidden to me, and have been for some weeks. I tried to mail a webmaster and some other mentioned mail addresses, but the mails bounced. Could somebody make the docs accessible, or should it be re-hosted on Hackage? Regards Arne D Halvorsen

I emailed Simon Peyton Jones about this a few weeks ago (he links to
these pages) and got the reply "thanks, will chase" - so people are
aware of it. The links are in many places, which is a bit of a shame.
Thanks, Neil

Hello The most of the papers the Wikipedia page links to should be publicly accessible, I've just checked the ones hosted at Utrecht University (e.g the Generic Haskell manual and Andres L\ohs thesis). Ralf Hinze has changed universities, so the link to http://www.informatik.uni-bonn.de/~ralf/publications/ICFP04.pdf unfortunately has gone, you could try asking him for a copy as it is not online at his new address: http://www.comlab.ox.ac.uk/people/publications/date/Ralf.Hinze.html. It looks like the Generics code hosted at Haskell.org is somewhat in transit as the machine hosting it have been swapped out. The haskellwiki page - http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/GPBench - points here (now defunct): Darcs repository: http://darcs.haskell.org/generics That repository is temporarily hosted here: http://old-darcs.well-typed.com/generics/ The comparison suite with examples for SYB, PolyP, Smash etc etc is in the folder 'comparsion': http://old-darcs.well-typed.com/generics/comparison/ Best wishes Stephen
Apologies for the rather garbled last message (I was trying to type whilst checking a multitude of links in a plethora or browser windows)... The SYB papers are here http://research.microsoft.com/en-us/um/people/simonpj/Papers/hmap/ The code seems to have vanished at the moment, maybe someone has the latest copy. I used Strafunski quite a bit myself, so I should have an archive of the last release if you want that. Best wishes Stephen
A few days ago I changed the links from the SYB wiki [1] to point to an
archived version of the vu.nl webpage:
http://web.archive.org/web/20080622204226/http://www.cs.vu.nl/boilerplate/
But it would be nice to have the webpage up again, somewhere.
Cheers,
Pedro
