I agree with all that Bas and Ashley wrote. If Ashley agrees to put TimeLocale into D.T.F, I withdraw my two proposals and we'll all celebrate. We can deprecate old-locale and issue a last version that just re-exports from D.T.F. We'll leave it in the platform until the handful of other platform packages using it migrate to D.T.F, then remove it from the platform. User code that hasn't been able to migrate by then can still be compiled by installing old-locale from hackage. And yes, I agree that a mechanism for deprecation warnings via cabal would be really nice. Thanks, Yitz
