Upstreaming some of the material in `Auxiliary` to UniMath/UniMath?
Great work was done by @peterlefanulumsdaine in #202 regarding organization of auxiliary material in Auxiliary
.
Question: would some of the material from Auxiliary
fit well into UniMath/UniMath? The advantages of upstreaming such material are:
- It would be easier to find and use in other libraries (though I am not aware of any development outside UniMath/UniMath and UniMath/TypeTheory).
- Material in U/U (but not in U/T) is regularly checked for compatibility with Coq development versions.
Upstreaming would not make the work of #202 superfluous - on the contrary, the good organization of the material makes it feasible at all to discuss the possibility of upstreaming, and would make upstreaming much easier.
Yes, I strongly support this! Several bits of the recent housekeeping (especially the reorganisation of the auxiliary files) were done with this in mind, and I have a rough plan for how to do it, so can happily take this on over the next few weeks (after UniMath/UniMath#1396 which I’m working on now).
