Re: [Haskell] [Haskell.org GSoC] Accepted Proposals
Hi, are there long descriptions somewhere? the trac page linked from melange seems to have not been updated since 2012: https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/summer-of-code/report/1 I'd be interested to see the milestones and expected outcomes for some of the projects :) Conrad.

Re: [Haskell] Summer of Code questions
Hi, just following up from this and some subsequent discussion on #haskell: On 09/03/07, Donald Bruce Stewart <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: duncan.coutts: > On Fri, 2007-03-09 at 00:39 +0100, Wolfgang Jeltsch wrote: > > > > > First, what organization is Haskell.org? > > > > Is this a real organization, i.e., a legal entity? > > > > > > No. (Unlike e.g. the Apache Foundation.) > > > > Doesn???t this create problems in conjunction with the Summer of Code or is > > Google tolerant regarding the legal status of participating organizations? > > It didn't cause any problem last year. Indeed. The majority of .orgs are ad hoc developer groups. Very few are actually legal entitites (like Apach or NetBSD). Some second-hand info regarding discussion on the mentoring organisation's discussion group (non-public, hence no archive URL): kfish: there was some discussion about umbrella organizations and incorporation kfish: Leslie recommended organizations incorporate, or get the Software Freedom Law Center or SPI to handle their financials for them but I can't find a statement that this was required I think the idea is that if you have a legal footprint, they can pay that, and individuals don't have to go through the hassle of getting a US taxpayer ID number just so they can tell the US gov't they're not taxable As I also mentioned on #haskell, there is probably no problem for haskell.org because it had a successful SoC last year. When I talked with Leslie after linux.conf.au, she mentioned that she was very very happy with haskell.org's participation last year because the people from the Haskell community were so friendly, kind and patient :-) cheers, Conrad (kfish). ___ Haskell mailing list Haskell@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell

I notice that currently you deriving Show and Read instances: -- |The abstract data structure to represent an IPv4 address. data IPv4 = IPv4 !Word32 deriving (Eq, Ord, Bounded, Show, Read) -- |The abstract data structure to represent an IPv6 address. data IPv6 = IPv6 !Word64 !Word64 deriving (Eq, Ord, Show, Read) resulting in strings like "IPv6 2306139568115548160 1" above. I can't really see a use for that big number representation (other than for debugging the library...) so why not just use your existing show*/read* functions? > Planned for the next release: > > * Support for parsing IPv4 notation embedded in IPv6 (e.g. "::192.168.1.1") is the result a value of type IPv4 or IPv6? For an IPv4-Compatible address I'd expect the result to be IPv4. It might also be useful to add a conversion function to turn an IPv4 address into an IPv4-Mapped IPv6 address. cheers, Conrad. > * Performance optimisations - IPv6 parsing/pretty printing is quite > slow due to zero compression (>2x speed decrease) > > The next release will likely be v1.0.0 as there isn't much to add.
