I'm not sure which is best for you, but you're the package author so
you get to decide!
While you're looking at the code for time, Ashley, I've got a question
about its relation to old-time: shouldn't System.Time have a DEPRECATED
pragma, pointing to time? The comments and package name say old-time is
deprecated in favour of time.
I looked into this; it's not quite that simple. System.Time exports
ClockTime, which is still used in System.Directory.getModificationTime. So
in order to properly deprecate System.Time, we have to supply an
alternative to System.Directory.getModificationTime, which would introduce
a dependency on the time package, and directory is currently a core package.
Cheers,
Simon
