[Haskell-cafe] [ANN] data-default-generics

[João Cristóvão]

Hi,

This project is a fork of the well known data-default package, since the
original author does not seem to be reachable, and has not accepted a
rather useful patch in the past.

It mainly adds:

* Regrouped everything into a single module
* Added several instances, namely Either, Text, ByteString, etc
* Added Generics support patch by Jonathan Fischoff, with some additional
support for recursive datatypes by me, with the precious help of José Pedro
Magalhães

This last point means that you can easily defined a default value for a
record.

See:

http://hackage.haskell.org/package/data-default-generics-0.3/candidate

If this is a duplicate effort, or a better alternative exists, please let
me know.

If not, I will soon publish it to hackage as 'official'.

Thanks,
João
