And for the record, I do agree with this. I think a historic problem is the results have never been public enough to most developers, and unfortunately not everyone is trained to respond to just the emails sent to [email protected] to diagnose a problem. Seeing a gigantic angry red build failure that blames you directly is likely much easier to for most people as opposed to sorting through emails from bots every morning. -- Regards, Austin Seipp, Haskell Consultant Well-Typed LLP, http://www.well-typed.com/ _______________________________________________ ghc-devs mailing list [email protected] http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/ghc-devs
