The text library isn't in a position to make it ready for inclusion there yet, but it's getting close, and it might even get there before binary. So it's no problem to write an NFData instance, but a Binary instance would be an issue. -- DOUBT: Is this correct also for Data.Text.Lazy ? > instance NFData Text > > instance Serial Text where > -- DOUBT: is this efficient? > series d = [T.pack (series d :: String)] > -- DOUBT: how to define this > coseries rs = error "coseries" > What's Serial?
