Re: Proposal: Applicative => Monad: Call for consensus

Okay, I still can't read. Now I was confusing this with the GHC only patch. I'll back away slowly, now. On Sun, Jan 2, 2011 at 9:49 AM, Antoine Latter wrote:

Ah! Yup, I just noticed.

I can't read, apparently :-)

Yeah, I get irritated whenever I come across a Monad instance and I cannot use the Applicative combinators. So I guess I'm in favor.

Is there a reason this is appropriate for the libraries process? Do any of these changes spill out into the public interface of base or GHC.Ext?

Sorry for the confusion, Antoine

Please note that although the ticket references the wiki page at http://haskell.org/haskellwiki/Functor-Applicative-Monad_Proposal, the patches attached to the ticket are much more conservative than the more ambitious reforms on the wiki. (I would like to change the ticket description to make this clearer, but I can't edit it.)

To clarify - this proposal is to implement just the patches attached to the ticket, /not/ everything in the related wiki page.
