Great! I copied some of that content to the wiki:
http://haskell.org/haskellwiki/Upgrading_from_MTL_1_to_MTL_2
http://haskell.org/haskellwiki/Incompatibilities_between_MTL_1_and_MTL_2
Please update the cabal file so that a link to this
content appears in the package description on Hackage.
On the wiki, I linked to these from the MTL page:
http://haskell.org/haskellwiki/Monad_Transformer_Library
These pages are kind of a rough transcription from wiki to wiki.
Anyone who can pretty it up is encouraged to do so.
The MTL page sorely needs a brief description of the
various monad libraries and the relationships between
them:
mtl-1, mtl-2, monads-fd, monads-tf, mtl-tf, transformers,
monadLib,...
Thanks,
Yitz
