Hi All, I'm pleased to announce the release of network-address v0.2.0. The library provides data structures and textual representation of network addresses (IPv4, IPv6, subnets). Major changes in this release: * Revised Address type class (readAddress was moved out of the class, readsAddress :: String -> ReadS a was added for better error reporting) * Better support for IPv6 parsing (compressed zeroes). * Implementation of RFC5952 (a recommendation for IPv6 text representation). Most notably showAddress for IPv6 compresses zeroes. Example GHCi session: *Data.Network.Address> let ip = readAddress "2001:db8:0:0:0::1" :: IPv6 *Data.Network.Address> ip IPv6 2306139568115548160 1 *Data.Network.Address> showAddress ip "2001:db8::1" *Data.Network.Address> let subnet = readSubnet "2001:db8::1/56" :: IPSubnet IPv6 *Data.Network.Address> showSubnet subnet "2001:db8::/56" *Data.Network.Address> ip `member` subnet True Planned for the next release: * Support for parsing IPv4 notation embedded in IPv6 (e.g. "::192.168.1.1") * Performance optimisations - IPv6 parsing/pretty printing is quite slow due to zero compression (>2x speed decrease) The next release will likely be v1.0.0 as there isn't much to add. I'd like to keep the API stable in that version, I welcome any feedback regarding the API (or otherwise).
