Greetings! A few questions about the inclusion of parsec:
1. It is parsec-2, not parsec-3, right? 2. Does this change consist of merely inclusion parsec as a standard library, or are there any compiler improvements in this release that made it possible to build parsec? * John Meacham <[email protected]> [2011-01-29 20:47:20-0800] > Announcing jhc 0.7.7!
