Re: 7.10 STABLE freeze date

This is fantastic! On the iOS front I have D206 (fixing dead-strip) hanging in phabricator on the testsuite makefile, due do the libgmp.10 dependency. See https://phabricator.haskell.org/D206 I'd really like to have this get into 7.10 as well. So we do not need to disable deadstripping anymore for iOS targets. Cheers, Moritz

Hello,

I've submitted a patch to finish the already-merged (but incomplete) ARM64 support that adds support for modern iOS devices

(I've also submitted a patch to LLVM to add an ARM64 GHC calling convention that is in review) On Fri, Nov 7, 2014 at 1:35 PM Austin Seipp wrote: Hi all,

After some deliberation, we've decided that the STABLE freeze for 7.10 will happen in approximately two weeks, on November 21st. We're hoping to stick to this date closely, but do read below.

This is perhaps a short time to freeze, but right now, we've only got a couple things we're planning on focusing on for the next few weeks. And these are really the major things we're waiting for. See below:

- https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/Status/GHC-7.10.1

These are just:

- D155, LLVM 3.5 compatibility, - D396 and D169, DWARF/source code note work. These are mostly in me and Simon's court to do another review round, but I think will be OK to get them in on time. - D168, Partial type signatures. The ball is in Simon's court on this one, but he's had several good rounds of discussion with Thomas etc from what I understand.

Based on our discussions earlier this week, I think these all will make it just in time for the freeze.

Nota bene: if there is *any* delay, it will be for these, as we picked them as the highest priority in our own views. It is unlikely we will delay any so people can sneak in a few other things. So, if you want something of yours in, you better get me, Simon & Simon, Herbert, etc's attention pronto! That way we'll have time to get it in first.

To make things easier, we'll also be pushing the lhs->hs conversion pretty soon so cherry picking/merges are easier, and do some other cleanups.

And outside of that, we've still been having a healthy flow of bug fixes falling into the tree, which is great. So if you're just bugfixing, please keep doing so - we'll be pulling bugfixes into the tree continuously.

We will also be pulling in submodule/library updates continuously, like we did for the 7.8 branch.

Let me know if you have questions, objections, or really really really want something - but I won't be as nice as last time I'm afraid. ;)
