Hi
Yes, if the maintainer thinks its ready.
The maintainer says that the library itself is definitely ready in its current state. :-)
This user definitely agrees!
The only problem is that it depends on cpphs, which is not in the platform. I personally think that cpphs warrants inclusion in the platform too, but it comes with that same LGPL (+linking exception) "burden" that is already discussed (haskell-src-exts itself uses BSD).
I see two possibilities:
* Allow LGPL (+linking exception) in the HP and include cpphs. Then haskell-src-exts can replace haskell-src immediately.
I support this.
* I remove the rather small functionality in haskell-src-exts that depends on cpphs (namely deliterating literate source files). Then a slightly stumped haskell-src-exts could replace haskell-src after I release such a stumped version.
I seriously dislike the idea that packages must have useful features removed to end in the HP. I also want you to include CPP support in HSE, and removing cpphs makes this more unlikely. Thanks Neil
