I'm a relative newb, so take my style comments with the appropriate amount of Navium Chloride, but I favour no blanket statements these days. Partly influence by XMonad's code itself, I've been using a mixture of: * explicit imports, for where I'm only using a couple functions (e.g Control.Monad.State (gets) ) * unqualified imports, for where I'm using a bunch, and its use it quite core to what I'm doing (e.g. XMonad) * qualified imports, for where I'm using a medium-sized amount, or where popular naming conflicts[1] exist (e.g. Data.Set vs Data.List vs StackSet) I find that's worked fairly well for me, but I haven't yet Haskelled "in the large." Devin [1] Sometimes they're not actual naming conflicts, like intersect vs intersection, but it's close enough that it deserves distinction.
