[I've taken the liberty of replying to hugs-bugs instead of hugs-users] Noel Winstanley asks: > Could you tell me if there any plans to incorporate the extended > type system of Hugs1.3c into a fully-fledged Hugs1.4ish system? > And, if so, in what some of timescale? As most people already know, we're beavering away on creating a merged Hugs-GHC system which will include the Hugs 1.3c type system, the Hugs 1.4 goodies, the new Hugs-GHC runtime system and the GHC 4.xx libraries. Since I'm moving to Utah at the end of November (see my homepage for details), I'm working flat out to have it done before I leave. So far we have the 1.3c typesystem and the Hugs-GHC runtime working reliably. Greencard+h/direct support is making gradual progress; loading GHC-compiled binaries is almost working but needs some GHC modifications to complete; loading a GHC-compiled prelude and standard libraries is going to be the big challenge. So I guess the answer is that the new system will be ready by Dec 1st. -- Alastair Reid Yale Haskell Project Hacker [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://WWW.CS.Yale.EDU/homes/reid-alastair/
