No, no decision has been taken so far as I know. Happily, I think the new core-libraries committee is planning to think actively about this question. Edward: are you going to have a public mailing list (that anyone can join) for most discussion, plus a private committee-only one for occasional use? Or are you going to use libraries@ for the former? Simon _______________________________________________ ghc-devs mailing list ghc-devs@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/ghc-devs
