Hi Gabriel,

I just wanted to follow up on this, since I couldn't find any more recent 
info. It looks like spawnWith isn't in the 2.0.3 version of 
pipes-concurrency that's up on hackage. If I'd like to work with this 
package in ghc 7.10, do you suggest I copy the spawnWith function from your 
repo into my codebase and work from that? Is there some other issue that 
came up that would lead you to suggest not using spawnWith now?


Thanks,
Dylan
