[Haskell] A collection of related proposals regarding monads

[Simon Peyton-Jones]

Simon Marlow pointed me to mail-archive.com.  For some reason Google
doesn't seem to index this site, and it's not an easy site to navigate
around.

However, you can find the monadzero thread mostly on this page:

(search for MonadZero)

| | What do people think of the following proposal? Remove fail from the
| | Monad class. Reinstate MonadZero as a separate class as in Haskell
| | 1.4.
| 
| This was debated extensively during the Haskell 98 process.  I'm not
| saying that we made the right decision then, but here's a link to (a
| part of) the discussion.
