- <longdescription>
- This package exposes combinators that can wrap arbitrary
- monadic actions. They run the action and potentially retry
- running it with some configurable delay for a configurable
- number of times.
- The purpose is to make it easier to work with IO and
- especially network IO actions that often experience temporary
- failure and warrant retrying of the original action. For
- example, a database query may time out for a while, in which
- case we should hang back for a bit and retry the query instead
- of simply raising an exception.
