<div dir="ltr">Hello,<br><br>I understand that with the proposed base package breakup [1], SYB will be moved to a separate package. But I still don't know how this will reflect on the development of the library. In particular:<br>
<br>1) Where is the source code going to be hosted? Here in Utrecht we currently have a repository with several (cabalized) generic programming libraries, SYB included. But maybe SYB will stay in the same repository as GHC?<br>
2) Can development proceed independently of GHC, i.e. can a new version of SYB be released without a new version of GHC?<br>3) How does the separation affect the automatic instance deriving mechanism?<br>
<br><br>Thanks,<br>Pedro<br><br>[1] <a href="http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/1338" target="_blank">http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/1338</a><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Tue, Aug 5, 2008 at 19:40, Ian Lynagh <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:igloo@earth.li" target="_blank">igloo@earth.li</a>></span> wrote:<br>
