Re: RC2 release imminent

Oh, and I'll go ahead and say: as you already probably noticed, we have XZ file support now. Please don't feel obligated to make a .xz binary - I will happily repackage it for you. 'make binary-dist' by default will still use a .bz2 output, which will work just fine when you send it to me. On Wed, Feb 26, 2014 at 6:14 PM, Austin Seipp wrote:

Hello all,

The RC2 source distribution is here:

http://www.haskell.org/ghc/dist/7.8.1-rc2/

Please build from it directly. It matches the HEAD of the ghc-7.8 branch as of now - e9212f0edbd3fddc3836ccded10d036c01d38505

Like last time, please include a link to the bindist, and a cryptographic hash (md5/sha1) of the tarball so I know it's OK.

Thanks!

The funny thing is that Pali (without the accent) is a nickname for Pál (translated: Paul). But surely he is never called this way :-)

Well, it does not really matter for me :-) I am aware I may confuse non-Hungarians, because I use my name in many different ways, with and without accents, I do not have a signature in my messages -- so I am fine whatever I am called until it uniquely determines me.

But yeah, I am Gabor too; but apparently we have a lot of Gabors here already :-P
