I've just added support for existential quantifiers in datatype declarations. You should find that Haddock already supports universals - in fact it allows 'forall' in exactly the same places as GHC (i.e. virtually everywhere). Cheers, Simon

Hi Haddock is very cool idea. I like it, but I see that Haddock doesn't support existencial and universal quntified types. Is it too difficult to implement that? I want to rewrite Object I/O documentation but I need support for these features. I'll volunteer to extend Haddock if there isn't any who already work about that.

I've been > waiting for something like this. I'd like Haddock to become a widely-used Haskell documentation tool, but I don't want to presume to call it "the standard tool". I'd like us to use Haddock to document the hierarchical libraries in fptools/libraries (indeed, that was the main reason I wrote it). Haddock is by no means perfect, but I think it's a step in the right direction. What do other people think? Should we adopt Haddock as the tool for documenting the libraries? This doesn't mean it will be a "standard" as such, merely that the reference implementation of the libraries will be marked-up using Haddock annotations. If people aren't comfortable with requiring a specific tool for generating the documentation from the reference sources, then we could perhaps standardise the annotation syntax instead. Nevertheless, we do *need* to document fptools/libraries in order that we (the GHC team) can release the next version of GHC. So excessive faffing around is not an option :-) Assuming that we adopt Haddock, I'd be grateful for any volunteers to help document everything in fptools/libraries - including the Prelude and Haskell 98 standard libraries (one of the shortcomings of our current library documentation is that one has to go elsewhere to find the documentation for these standard bits). Prelude & std library documentation can for the most part be culled from the Reports and various other resources on the web, and much of the other library documentation can be ported from the old hslibs documentation, suitably unDocBooked. I'll volunteer to coordinate the documentation effort. Cheers, Simon

That's probably good enough for me. I'd like to start documenting my code, but I'd like to be sure that I won't have to rewrite all the comments just because the doc tool falls out of favour. -- Ashley Yakeley, Seattle WA

The license is entirely up to you, but one practical thing to bear in mind is that we're going to keep licenses the same within a given package (i.e. libraries/base, libraries/network etc.) so if you envisage your code being absorbed into libraries/network at some point then this will be easier if you pick the same license (i.e. BSD). > I assume it should be classified as experimental.

Actually I've just removed all these from fptools/libraries on the grounds that they were confusing and didn't really serve the purpose they were intended to, so don't worry about the $Id$ string unless you have a good reason for wanting one.

I am about to update our library for BER (Basic Encoding Rules). I have read http://www.haskell.org/~simonmar/libraries/libraries.html. I think it should be called Network.BER. I don't have any strong views on licensing and it looks like BSD would cause the least problems. I assume it should be classified as experimental. I also assume it is non-portable as uses existential types and Words and Bits. I am using CVS. Could someone tell me how I get the string -- $Id: libraries.sgml,v 1.4 2001/07/05 13:52:49 simonmar Exp $ put into the recommended header (see below)?
