* Release a new version of network (1.5) that does not include the Network.URI module. * Create a network-uri package that uses conditionals in the cabal file. * If it's compiled against network version 1.4 or earlier, it doesn't provide any modules. * If it's compiled against network 1.5 or later, it provides the Network.URI module.
I don't understand benefits of this plan. Consider another simpler plan: we just provide two packages: - "network" without Network.URI - "network-uri" which includes Network.URI only (without the conditionals) What is the difference Michael's one and this? In other words, what does Michael's one contribute from the backward compatibility point of view? --Kazu
