Hello,
today was the deadline for discussing this proposal and there were no
objections, so I'll go ahead and make the change.

Hello,
when writing simple String parsers, I find implementing this function over and over:
readEither :: Read a => String -> Either String a
I just found out that it is already defined in the module "Text.Read" in the "base" package but, sadly, it is not exported. Would there be any objections if: 1. I was to export it 2. I was to add another convenience function "readMaybe :: Read a => String -> Myabe a" defined in terms of "readEither".
I can't think of any problems that this might cause and it would be very helpful to me and my colleagues.
Discussion period: 2 weeks, so until 22 December 2011.
