Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist * Package name : libghc-rate-limit Version : 1.4.0 Upstream Author : Adam Wick <aw...@uhsure.com> * URL : https://hackage.haskell.org/package/rate-limit * License : BSD-3-Clause Programming Lang: Haskell Description : A basic library for rate-limiting IO actions

This library is intended as a general-purpose mechanism for rate-limiting IO actions. -- According to Clint, this will be required for the new taffybar package (#895264). I do not plan on maintaining this, and hope someone will magically step up to do so. :) But I would certainly use the resulting taffybar, which I'm pretty excited about...
