[Haskell-cafe] ANN: ansi-terminal-0.6.1

[Roman Cheplyaka]

There's no information about the group, no mailing list or IRC channel.
It doesn't look like there's much collaboration inside the group.

Nor did I get any response (except a short IRC chat with Daniel Wagner,
who confirmed the above).

Of course these problems could be addressed, but the very fact that they
still aren't (after 2 years) is a sign for me that there's not much
interest and it's not worth the effort on my side.
