Lots of cool stuff here! A few questions:
* xml A simple, lightweight XML parser/generator.
http://hackage.haskell.org/cgi-bin/hackage-scripts/package/xml
Can you describe how this compares to HaXml? Were there deficiencies in HaXml?
* sqlite Haskell binding to sqlite3 http://sqlite.org/, a light, fast database.
http://hackage.haskell.org/cgi-bin/hackage-scripts/package/sqlite
Similar questions here regarding HDBC. Did HDBC (and HDBC-sqlite3) not address some need?
* feed Interfacing with RSS (v 0.9x, 2.x, 1.0) and Atom feeds
http://hackage.haskell.org/cgi-bin/hackage-scripts/package/feed
Sweet. Might have to refactor hpodder to use this.
* mime Haskell support for working with MIME types.
http://hackage.haskell.org/cgi-bin/hackage-scripts/package/mime
FWIW, I have some similar but slightly different functions in MissingH. http://software.complete.org/static/missingh/doc//MissingH/Data-MIME-Types.h... hsemail and WASH both also have some stuff in this area. Probably not as nice as yours though. -- John
