[Haskell-cafe] http://functionalley.eu
I've just written a few packages which I think may be useful, and have made them available as free opensource on a personal website http://functionalley.eu. I opted to host them there rather than uploading them to Hackage, because they're part of a wider project. The main offerings are; a regex-engine which is polymorphic in terms of the type of the input-data, a traditional character-based regex-engine derived from it, and an application to determine the most efficient order in which to pack files into a given storage-space. I understand this isn't the ideal venue in which announce new packages, but having looked briefly at the hask...@haskell.org mail-group and the cerebral offerings there, I'm rather concerned that my meagre offerings may resemble germs in a Dettol factory. Is there a more appropriate forum ? If anyone has the time, I'd also greatly appreciate any feedback on this s/w. Regards, Alistair Ward P.S. This is my first posting. ___ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe

haskellcafe: I've just written a few packages which I think may be useful, and have made them available as free opensource on a personal website http://functionalley.eu Wonderful, thank you! I opted to host them there rather than uploading them to Hackage, because they're part of a wider project. Note that this means they won't be cabal installable or searchable. Was that your intention? -- Don ___ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe

I am curious about this: wasn't cabal designed with the option of having several package repos in mind? please clarify/document --remote-repo http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/759 Claus ___ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe

Search won't work though. -- Don ___ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
