I need instance Binary UTCTime for my project, and instances for the
other data types would be handy as well.
If you consider such an instance of general use, it would be nice if
you'd upload a new version of your package with that instance to hackage
soon.
Otherwise, I'll use an instance in my own package.
Please let me know your decision,

Regards,
Joachim


p...@-cafe:
I still have doubts that this approach will scale as hackage grows. We’d
get a lot more dependencies than we have now, and still would face this
problem every now and then. Or do you really want packages that provide
data types (like time) depend on all the libraries that do some kind of
conversion (binary, html, xhtml, json, yaml, etc.)?
