Hello In many invidual projects one is faced with challenges from the changing standard library. Currently it seems that each project uses a separate solution - maybe a common approach would be possible. I would be most interested in packaging a library which would implement GHC 6.4 base package for older releases (mainly GHC 6.2.x). GHC seems to have its own solution in fptools/ghc/lib/compat/ but having a cabal package and supporting e.g. Data.Map/Set could make things easier. Does this sound like a good idea or is there a much better solution? - Einar Karttunen
