Haskell packages in Arch are out of date because the haskell repo depends on packages in extra and in community, and beacuse of Haskell Platform. I think that a six-month-cycle update is in contrast to Arch philosophy. We should steak with the latest in hackage and it should be quite easy if every package is in archhaskell repo.

Arch is not a testing distro... And it's not even up to date with Haskell Platform. If you want to "go faster them haskell platform" you will need to work hard with packaging testing and this seems NOT the case with Arch at the moment...
