Friends,
For a number of reasons, I have decided to move on to new challenges, and so from the end of the month the GHC maintenance work will be taken over by other people within Well-Typed.
I hope not to disappear completely, but in any case if there is anything you think only I might know, please tell me and I'll try to document it!
A couple of topical items: First, I've written a brief summary of the GHC 7.8 release plans here: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/Status/GHC-7.8 Please feel free to edit it if there's anything I've left out, or if there are any other errors.
Second, there's been a bit of discussion recently about moving over to using git submodules for more repos, or using git subrepos instead, or merging some of our repos together. We didn't feel that there was a consensus on what to do, so we plan to do nothing for now, but this is an area that might want to be revisited after the 7.8 release.
Finally, I would like to everyone at Well-Typed, the Simons, and too many other community members to list, for a fantastic seven years. It's been a pleasure working with you all, and I look forward to finding out where the future takes us.
Thanks Ian -- Ian Lynagh, Haskell Consultant Well-Typed LLP, http://www.well-typed.com/
