Hi *, Here are some status updates: - I've merged the Applicative Monad patchset! Yay! Many thanks to Nathan Howell for helping me out in the end there. Please let me know if anything explodes horribly (I hope not). - Gabor has set up some build documentation for us based on HEAD, hooray! See here - http://haskell.inf.elte.hu/ - I still need to fix haskell.org/ghc to link to this properly (there may be other dead links, please let me know). - As I'm sure most of you were aware, it was a slow week due to ICFP & related events being most of last week. - As I'm also sure you were aware, Haskell.org suffered a lot of instability this past week. I've been focusing most of my efforts since about Thursday on this, since it's come and gone a lot and has needed some consistent monitoring. Unfortunately, it is not done yet, and there is still more work to be done. :( - ghc.haskell.org was migrated to a new server in the US as a part of this effort this weekend (send a thanks to Herbert). In general, you should notice nothing really new, but latency for UK citizens may be a bit higher than it was before now. - Now that Applicative/Monad is done, there are some more changes to 'base' that will happen (Bifunctors, Foldable/Traversable) that will need to happen. So I'm sure this discussion will start soon. - I still can't set up the Windows bot yet, sorry! Phabricator work is still not yet available upstream. Hopefully soon. - Sergei spent some time filing bugs that we should fix in the testsuite, because they fail --slow validate. I believe these are two of them: - https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/9567 - https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/9566 We'll probably need to fix these before we turn it on. Simon, these look like something up your alley... - For those who missed ICFP, Simon gave a nice status update for GHC, which is on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ex79K4lvJno&list=PL4UWOFngo5DW6nKDjK0UB5Oy9zmdWdo7K&index=5 -- Regards, Austin Seipp, Haskell Consultant Well-Typed LLP, http://www.well-typed.com/
