👍! |

👍 but I'm not looking forward to the downstream updates needed 😄 Does it make sense to turn these into aliases? Or is the issue that the names tend to collide with other things? |
|
I haven't personally had problems with name collisions, I'm more interested in code readability. We could do aliases, although I would like to take advantage of being <1.0 while we still can - having both would feel like a wart. I can also volunteer for the downstream updates. :) |
|
Speaking of which - does anyone have the incantation to list downstream libraries? |
|
Maybe hold off on that? I have a thing I'm working on with a post-0.8-release of the Prelude that should probably be a released as a breaking-version to prevent our previous disasters with version problems after compiler updates. |
|
Ah, ok. So maybe we should leave them in as aliases for now then? |
toList and fromList are still exported, but they are now deprecated.
|
I've just amended this commit so that toList and fromList are still there as aliases, so that this can be merged without a major version bump. This way, people can start writing future-proof code now. |
Improve names for toList, fromList.

Perfect, thanks! |
