The Ambiata Prelude. Short and sweet.
General rules.
- Safety first.
- Consistency of functionality.
- Attempt at completeness of functionality across core structures.
Guidance - "Should it go in p"
- Is something that is very general & useful, with an obvious semantic and can be implemented from
base- YES. - If it is unsafe - NO.
- Is there a more general version - NO.
- Is it something available in base in only some GHC versions - YES.
- It has a lot of dependencies - Probably Not - Maybe case for splitting into p-*.
- It introduces name clashes - Probably Not - Consider a standalone module designed to be import qualified in
P, i.e.P.Text as T.
