hello, i would gladly volunteer for the task. in fact i have my own monad transformer library which is very simillar to the ghc one in some respects, and i have been wanting to merge the two together... how does one go about "owning" a library :-) ? bye iavor Simon Peyton-Jones wrote:
We could do with someone to take ownership of the Control.Monad libraries. Andy Gill wrote them but I don't think he's actively maintaining them, which leaves discussions like this in mid air.
