Hi Folks,
We currently have the Haskell 98 Directory library as
System.IO.Directory in the new hierarchy. I'd prefer to move it to
System.Directory if no-one has any objections.
I'm currently looking at the Posix libraries. There were two suggested
placings for the Posix libraries:
System
Posix
IO
Process
Files
System
IO
Posix
Directory
Posix
Process
Posix
I'd go with the second layout on the grounds that it follows the
convention of organising libraries by functionality. Comments?
There are also various generic Posix bits (eg. types) that don't have a
good home. I'm currently planning to put these in System.Posix.
Cheers,
Simon
