<div dir="ltr">Hi all,<div><br></div><div>I've put up the Yesod 0.8 migration guide[1]. I'm planning on releasing this version of Yesod tomorrow night (Saturday, UTC+3). Now's your chance to try and find those last few bugs before release.</div>
<div><br></div><div>I have one idea that I wanted to bounce around. The biggest thing in this release is the transition to Text. Overall, this is a good move, but it's just a little bit annoying to lose out on convenience functions like concat and ++. As a convenience, I'm considering exporting the following from the Yesod module:</div>
<div><br></div><div> mconcat (from Data.Monoid)</div><div> <> = mappend (from Data.Monoid)</div><div> Text (the strict version, from Data.Text)</div><div><br></div><div>I know there was some talk a while ago of providing a <> operator in base, but I haven't heard anything about it since. I think this could be a very nice convenience, and would appreciate feedback.</div>
