Release 0.3.4?
simonmar opened this issue · comments
Can we do a new release? The big thing is that we need to switch to the direct scheduler to avoid the nested scheduler bug (#23). Also, it would be nice to have ParIO, which isn't in any released version yet, but I want to mention it in my book.
Yes! I'll get a release candidate on a 0.3.4 branch and we'll all take a look and sign off on it.
Ryan - any idea when you'll be able to get around to this? We have people affected by the bug. I'd be happy to do the release myself if you let me know what needs to be done (which packages to release, do we need to bump versions etc.).
The current hackage version (0.3) also seems to have a problem with the tests, where sometimes the test-monad-par process just hangs. I tried the version tagged monad-par-0.3.4 and it does not exhibit this problem. This hanging is causing problems for Stackage automated builds.
Ryan has been somewhat unresponsive, so I released 0.3.4 from the current sources with a few tweaks. It works for all the things I've tried it with - the tests in the repo, and several of my own test programs. Please let me know if you have any problems.
