Hello,
Here's my attempt to take over an apparently unmaintained package:
https://hackage.haskell.org/package/AC-Vector
It has been suggested to me to do this here:
https://github.com/haskell-infra/hackage-trustees/issues/391
I have prepared a patch rendering the instance declarations in code
compatible with the class structure of base>=4.9. If any authorised person
were to simply apply the enclosed patch, I'd appreciate that too.
That's all,
Jan
Hi Ben!
For the 9.10 release I would like to cut the accompanying Haddock
release from the GHC tree.
Cool features will have to wait for 9.12, so that that the new team can
get acquainted with the code base and the bugs.
Thank you for reaching out.
Cheers,
Hécate
