Any users of Network.CGI here?
I would like to propose replacing the current Network.CGI module with what is now known as Network.NewCGI [2]. This has been mentioned briefly before [1]. The new module is backwards compatible with the old one (except for the export of Text.Html.Html, which is now Text.XHtml.Html).
Here is what I would like to do:
- Remove Network.CGI from the network package. - Change the name of Network.NewCGI to Network.CGI - Add the cgi package to http://darcs.haskell.org/packages/ - Add the xhtml package [3] to http://darcs.haskell.org/packages/ This is needed since the cgi package uses it to generate error pages.
Any comments, suggestions, or objections?
Bjorn - any progress on this? If you do it in the next week, we could get it into GHC 6.6. If not, I still intend to separate out CGI from the network package so that it can be more easily replaced by your version. Cheers, Simon
