[Haskell-cafe] Current Haskell report URL
Is there a reason that the Haskell 2010 report is in a subdirectory of haskell.org/onlinereport (which currently points to the Haskell98 standard)? http://www.haskell.org/onlinereport/ -- Haskell98 http://www.haskell.org/onlinereport/haskell2010/ -- Haskell2010 If it's for historical reasons - because books etc. use this URL for the 98 standard, then I'd highly recommend making a new directory called currentreport or something (if there isn't one already). The current impression that we give is that Haskell98 is the current standard, and Haskell2010 isn't compiler-supported. amindfv / Tom ___ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe

Indeed, but yesterday there was a post on beginners where the OP said they didn't want to use extensions, just plain Haskell98. I thought, shouldn't that be Haskel2010? ___ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
