There is no GH (or similar) repo and no contact email address.

gbaz commented 10 months ago

there's a maintainer email address on that page?

erikd commented 10 months ago

Sorry, you are correct. Sending email now.

Also, now that Generically exists and has a generically compat package, it might be possible to move people away from the generic-monoid dependency and have one less thing to maintain?

erikd commented 10 months ago

In the code base I work on,it was only being used for the Monoid and Semigroup instances for a single two element sum type where both elements already had instances. It was easier to just hand write the instances and drop the dependency.

This has been fixed on Hackage.
