− | <p><em>monadLib 2.0</em>. Iavor Diatchki |
||
− | [http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lang.haskell.general/13460 announced] |
||
− | the release of monadLib 2.0 -- library of |
||
− | monad transformers for Haskell. 'monadLib' is a descendent of |
||
− | 'mtl', the monad template library that is distributed with most |
||
− | Haskell implementations. Check out the |
||
− | [http://www.csee.ogi.edu/~diatchki/monadLib library] web page. |

− | <p><em>Text.Regex.Lazy (0.33)</em>. Chris Kuklewicz |
||
− | [http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lang.haskell.libraries/4464 announced] |
||
− | the release of [http://sourceforge.net/projects/lazy-regex Text.Regex.Lazy]. |
||
− | This is an alternative to Text.Regex along with some enhancements. |
||
− | GHC's Text.Regex marshals the data back and forth to C arrays, to call |
||
− | libc. This is far too slow (and strict). This module understands |
||
− | regular expression Strings via a Parsec parser and creates an internal data |
||
− | structure (Text.Regex.Lazy.Pattern). This is then transformed into a |
||
− | Parsec parser to process the input String, or into a DFA table for matching |
||
− | against the input String or FastPackedString. The input string is |
||
− | consumed lazily, so it may be an arbitrarily long or infinite source. |

− | <p><em>HDBC 0.99.2</em>. John Goerzen |
||
− | [http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lang.haskell.general/13504 released] |
||
− | HDBC 0.99.2, along with 0.99.2 versions of all database |
||
− | backends. John says "If things go well, after a few weeks of |
||
− | testing, this version will become HDBC 1.0.0". |
||
− | [http://quux.org/devel/hdbc HDBC] is a |

− | <p><em>Planet Haskell</em>. Isaac Jones |

− | [http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lang.haskell.cafe/12033 asked] |
||
− | if someone could volunteer to set up "Planet |
||
− | Haskell", an RSS feed aggregator in the style of Planet Debian, Planet |

− | <p><em>Haskell on Gentoo Linux</em> Duncan Coutts |

− | [http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lang.haskell.glasgow.user/9557 writes] |
||
− | that GHC 6.4.1 has been marked stable on x86, |
