[ANN] cassava 0.5.5.0

Announcements

Changes from the last version.

  • Faster encoding: Encoding is 1.25× faster and more memory efficient.
  • Default values for encoding missing fields: Provides a way to either specify per-column defaults or a general fallback value (missing fields would previously throw a runtime exception).
  • Nominal Builder types: prevents unsafe coercions when using builders.

It’s great to see this package in new hands! :slight_smile:

@hvr created and/or maintained a whole bunch of foundational Haskell packages, and it seems like @andreasabel has been keeping the lights on for most of them (and other packages!) for several years now.

Thanks to all of you! :folded_hands: It probably goes unnoticed far too often just how much maintenance work is carried out by a surprisingly small group of astonishingly dedicated maintainers.
