Dear all,
BlazeHtml started out on ZuriHac 2010. Now, Jasper Van der Jeugt is working on it as a student to Google Summer of Code for haskell.org. His mentors are Simon Meier and Johan Tibell. The goal is to create a high-performance HTML generation library.
In the past few weeks, we have been exploring the performance and design of different drafts of this library. Now, the time has come to ask some questions to the Haskell community — more specifically the future users of BlazeHtml as well as current users of other HTML generation libraries.
We have written an RFC to gather feedback from the community:
HTML version: http://jaspervdj.be/posts/2010-05-27-blazehtml-rfc.html Plain version: http://github.com/jaspervdj/BlazeHtml/raw/develop/doc/RFC.lhs
The easiest way of sending us feedback, comments or criticism is replying to the haskell-cafe thread here. Alternatively, drop a comment at the bottom of the HTML version or at reddit.
Looking forward to your feedback, Kind regards, Simon Meier Jasper Van der Jeugt _______________________________________________ web-devel mailing list web-devel@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/web-devel
Q2: What HTML standards should the library at least support? HTML 4 Transitional XHTML 1.0 Transitional XHTML 1.0 Strict I don't care if frameset doctypes are supported. Q3: Which HTML version would you preferably use? HTML 4 Transitional. Please, don't make HTML 4 Strict the default. I personally haven't used it in years and don't really know any professional web developer that uses it today. -- Deniz Dogan
