Potential topics for a group hack
Add ideas here for which you think hacking together as a group (rather than individually) would be beneficial.
- Building tests that give 100% code coverage for package base.
- Lots of Cabal hacking still to be done
- Bindings for <your favourite C library>
- Haskell library for <your favourite task>
Other things:
- bytestring 1.0
- bit layer on Data.Binary 1.0
- Data.ByteString.Parallel
- libxml
- bytestring parsec
- combine strictcheck and quickcheck once and for all
