Second, here's a super-quick summary of what we've learned:
— The #1 complaint was the compilation speed and memory usage of GHC.
— Next most unpopular was performance and size of the generated code.
— The most-requested feature, after performance improvements, is some kind of debugger.
— Portability and the difficulty of compiling GHC was raised a lot.
— API and feature changes breaking code between releases was also a common gripe.
— Many people mentioned the quality of error messages as something that could be improved.
— Many people want improvements to documentation, especially library docs.
— Lots of requests for an IDE and better GUI support.
— There is some concern over the complexity of GHC affecting its maintainability and portability,
and how difficult it is to contribute.
