Haskell Interlude 41: Mike Angermann

Today, Matthías and Joachim are interviewing Moritz Angermann. Moritz knew he wanted to use Haskell before he knew Haskell, fixed cross-compilation as his first GHC contribution. We'll talk more about cross-compilation to Windows and mobile platforms, why Template Haskell is the cause of most headaches, why you should be careful if your sister calls and tells you to cabal install a package, and finally how we can reduce the fear of new GHC releases, by improving stability.

The discussion about incentives for stability was interesting. It reminded me of the maintainership standards proposal. I think it would be very useful to have Hackage show information like how quickly a package fixes version bounds when new versions of their dependencies are released.
