Re: [Haskell-cafe] [Haskell] Proposal to incorporate Haskell.org

It's likely that in such a scenario, the Haskell Foundation would become the owner of the haskell.org domain name, with the cost divided between the members. The entity that is part of the SFC would be renamed community.haskell.org in order to avoid confusion. Would it be a too ambitious goal to create the Haskell Foundation at this moment? -- Giovanni ___ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
Re: [Haskell-cafe] Poll: Do you want a mascot? -- please stop this

Email is an easy way to make sure nobody votes twice. 1. It's unlikely to get feedback from the larger Haskell community 2. It floods people with email they don't care (unless they care to keep track of the results) 3. One can just as easily create throw-away emails, subscribe to the list and answer the poll 4. etc... My suggestion is to create a poll somewhere else and let it run for at least a month. Or a more elaborated survey with additional questions trying to capture the community's feeling toward a masket and what kind. I don't think we are in a hurry to get a mascot here so let's take the time and do it properly. -- Giovanni ___ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe

I like Da because its simple and Da the lamb rolls smoothly off the tongue. Probably best to open a poll to and let everyone decide. Not trying to complicate things any further but perhaps it'd be better to have a contest on this, just like for the new logo. -- Giovanni ___ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe

[...] Questions about current Haskell Platform for OSX 2011.2.0.1. : (http://hackage.haskell.org/platform/mac.html) 1) Where can I find release notes to understand what version of GHC Haskell Platform for OSX 2011.2.0.1 includes? I couldn't find a release notes document for Mac OS X but unpacking the .pkg file shows it has GHC 7.0.3. 2) Will I be able to install mongoDB-1.1.0 on this release? Hackage shows that mongoDB-1.0.1 has been the latest package compiled with GHC 7.0. For GHC 6.x it's mongoDB-0.8.1. You might have more luck upgrading the Haskell Platform or choosing a older version of mongoDB. 3) How to install it into a separate location so it would not ruin my current platform?

Why? Interesting -- this works as you want with runghc, but it works as you describe when compiled with ghc --make. (under ghc 7.0.3 here as well.) It works fine with runghc / ghc (7.0.3) on WinXP 32-bit.
