Maybe I need more coffee but I don't see how using relative names helps with the hard bit of the problem: conflicts between libraries written by different people.

The reason this does not work as-of-now is the requirement of an absolute path in the module declaration. And relative paths would fix this.

I would like relative names. I've used them in Python for years, they're very handy. Would relative names be nonportable or difficult to implement? -- Shae Matijs Erisson - I've tried to teach people autodidactism, but it seems they always have to learn it for themselves. #haskell on irc.freenode.net - We Put the Funk in Funktion
