Oh, right - I'm not much interested in the stability of a package. What I want to know, is which package to choose for some purpose. By highlighting stuff that is correlated with usefulness, I'll be able to make a quicker, more informed decision. Separating this from stability is a feature, not a bug, since it frees the author to label the package stable or not - instead of encouraging using "stable" to mean "please use". :-) -k -- If I haven't seen further, it is by standing in the footprints of giants _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
