I don't think that [haskell] move to a version of GHC that is newer than what's in [extra]. This means that in order to avoid doing unnecessary work you need to ask Vesa what his GHC plans are. In a thread from earlier in the autumn he did express some plans, but I suspect you are already aware of that thread.
I would like Vesa to take part to this discussion... In that thread he planned to drop haskell-platform (and I fully agree) but talked about moving those packages to [community]. IMHO the most useful thing to do is putting *all* haskell packages in [haskell], this is the easiest way to track dependencies with cblrepo.
Witch version should I use? For now we have 1 vote for 7.2.2 (Magnus) and 1 for 7.0.4 (Bernardo).
I suspect the most worthwhile thing to do is an attempt to use 7.4rc1.
I used 7.2.2 from [testing]. I suspect that a lot of package will not compile with 7.4...
