Abstract
Writing boilerplate code is a royal pain. Generic programming promises to alleviate this pain by allowing the programmer to write a generic "recipe" for boilerplate code, and use that recipe in many places. In earlier work we introduced the "Scrap your boilerplate " approach to generic programming, which cunningly exploits Haskell's existing type-class mechanism to support generic transformations and queries.
