[Haskell-cafe] ANN: alloy-1.0.0 (generic programming)

[Neil Brown]

Hi all,

I've just put the first release of the Alloy generic programming library 
on Hackage [1].

Alloy (née Polyplate) is intended to be a fairly fast blend of several 
other generics approaches, such as SYB (but without the dynamic typing) 
and Uniplate (but allowing an arbitrary number of target types), for 
performing transformations on specific types in large tree structures.

There is a tutorial explaining how to use the library [2], the API 
documentation should be live on Hackage shortly [1], and there is also a 
recent draft of a paper with benchmarks and details of the inner 
workings for those who are interested [3].
