If I remember correctly, DData was intended to be the next-generation standard set of collection modules. So, maybe, we should just name the modules Data.Map, Data.Seq, etc. I think, it was already said that this should probably be done.
If that's the case, it's fine with me. It should then be in the base package, not in a separate one.
A problem is Data.Set but there may be a solution for this. [...]
I've just made a quick test, and it seems that there exists a simple solution for this: For a transitional time, Data.Set exports both the old API (and marks it as DEPRECATED) and the new API, which is easy because there is no incompatible overlap. Cheers, S.
