[Haskell-cafe] [web-devel] Automatic error traces

[Greg Weber]

That's great. We should collaborate on this. I wrote the file-location
package and Michael Snoyman wrote monad-logger: both of these give file
location information. I also added command tracing to Shelly (which could
also benefit from this kind of thing) and recently released rollbar for
error notification and would like to have as much line info as possible for
that.
