I need to add some build system stuff for GHC: Makefile,
package.conf.in, and possibly configure.ac. Instead of the fps
dependency, there will be a base>=2.0 dependency (ideally we would have
conditional dependencies, but Cabal support for that isn't ready yet).
I don't have GHC past 6.4.2, so I'll have to let you do all that.
Since time is short, I plan to integrate regex-base, regex-compat and
regex-posix today, then I'll pull over any changes you make. I'll do
this by replicating your trl-stable darcs repo and morphing it into each
of the smaller repos, that way we don't lose history, and the repo isn't
large to begin with.
"morph"?
The oldest version of the repository was "Text.Regex.Lazy" and was an
unorganized mix of compat/parsec/dfa/devel without any base/posix/pcre/tre.
The loss of history a this stage would not be too terrible.
How is the Haddock documentation? I noticed some of the modules
didn't have Haddock headers on, this is standard practice in the
libraries.
I have not added the boilerplate haskell headers to everything. I
will go through them and add it, probably tonight, to at least
regex-base/posix/compat.
A lot of the documentation seems to refer to JRegex - while this is
useful for someone moving from one to the other, it won't mean much to
someone trying to grok the new regex stuff in GHC 6.6. Any chance of
having some more basic docs?
I should absorb the example files into a large piece of haddock documentation.
I'll start on that and then merge that into your new repository.
Cheers,
Chris
