Re: Status of Haskell'?

it might be wise to see what GHC decides to do on that front, first,

I'd argue that it's not. Haskell hasn't had a release in years, and I think it's time to put a little pressure on the community. On Tue, Nov 27, 2012 at 2:15 PM, Ben Millwood wrote:

This is a little tricky since the Data class itself makes (essential, I think) use of Rank2Types. Typeable ought to be fine, but it might be wise to see what GHC decides to do on that front, first, e.g. whether it's going to autoderive all instances or forbid user instances or anything else similarly bold.
