Re: Gearing up (again) for the next release: 2014.2.0.0

Actually, changing my opinion here. If there was an argument to _add_ cgi to the platform I'd be very dubious. Legacy considerations and history aside, cgi doesn't feel like a core/common thing that is necessary to have in the platform, and it probably hasn't been for many years. If Anders doesn't get around to fixing it up, I think we should have no compunctions dropping it, and I'd be shocked if there was much in the way of complaint. --G On 4/2/14, 8:36 PM, Gershom Bazerman wrote:

Anders: What would you like to do about this situation? Is it possible to revert to the non monadcatchio interface with throwCGI and catchCGI? Or would you like to switch to the exceptions package which people are considering including in the platform?

*cgi* - no longer builds, and we've been unwilling to bring it forward because it pulls in MonadCatchIO-mtl

Should we remove it from the platform?
