Thanks. I agree composition was a pain point. I had various ideas to make things better, like adding support for "erased" views/functions/TVFs that would be inlined at compile time, but it always felt like it'd be hacky and still not solve enough problems.

Type providers are such a cool language feature, but the way developing one works is too damn confusing. Especially when you try to publish one as an easy-to-use package and simple stuff like loading dependencies feels like uncharted territory. When it comes to my precious free time I hate, hate, hate figuring out packaging/deployment type stuff, I just want to focus on my code. So that's a big part of why I haven't done a great job maintaining it.

I feel your pain although I haven't ever implemented type provider to be precise. You have no reason to feel guilty! It's out and it's runs without any major bugs(!). Hopefully community will carry it and at very least it's one nice show case for compile time computing of F# (and maybe add motivation to develop that side of language further).
