In the long term, I think it would be a good idea to redesign the Prelude to be more minimal. But for the time being, we should provide the Haskell98 Prelude exactly as-is but place it in the new namespace somewhere.
Should it be required of source files that they explicitly import the Prelude? -- Ashley Yakeley, Seattle WA

Please no. I treat Prelude like elements of syntactic sugar - something available by default, because used almost everywhere. If it's written everywhere, it should not be explicit. -- __("< Marcin Kowalczyk * qrczak@knm.org.pl http://qrczak.ids.net.pl/ \__/ ^^ SYGNATURA ZASTÊPCZA QRCZAK
