[Haskell-cafe] Stripe-Haskell Updates !

[David Johnson]

*stripe-haskell 2.0* has been released on hackage.

*The 2.0 release will entail the following:*
  - All types will now live in their own repository 'stripe-core' (for
better use w/ ghcjs projects).
  - 'stripe-http-streams' is a specific http client backend for
'stripe-haskell'
    - Other backends (wreq, conduit, etc.) can be added. As always, pull
requests welcome.
  - 'stripe-haskell' is now a virtual package that wraps
'stripe-http-streams' and 'stripe-core'.
  - We have a 'gitter' chat for our repo, to promote collaboration.
  - We now have a multi-ghc travis build that uses stack.
  - Jeremy Shaw has implemented a novel approach to the optional parameters
problem using typeclasses. The docs will contain more information.
  - For existing stripe-haskell users version 2.0 is a breaking change, but
it features a nicer interface due to Jeremy Shaw's changes.

*Other notes:*
  - Existing 1.4 users will not be neglected. We can continue to submit
patches up to 2.0.

*Future goals:*
  - Migrate to servant-client ASAP.
  - Continue to beg Stripe for a machine readable specification that will
relieve us from having to perform manual updates on subsequent API changes,
and furthermore will allow us to fully take advantage of this wonderful
service.
