There's a difference between coding a compiler and coding anything else. SPJ's recommendation for libraries is to *always* use explicit import lists, as this gives maximum forward-compatibility, since otherwise your code could break when a new function is added to the imported module, due to name clashes. There was discussion recently (on haskell-cafe) of adding a warning for imports without an import list. I hope it gets added, as it'll make it easier to enforce darcs' coding guidelines. :)

Could you refer me to the darcs guidelines? :) I've googled nothing.

I'm afraid we haven't written them up. But if you were to read the code, you'd find that it's pretty clear, and it's definitely been discussed on the mailing list. -- David Roundy Department of Physics Oregon State University
