For the sake of the Haskell Platform users, I hope 7.10.2 will include the following fixes in the accompanying haddock and cabal. * Support for haddock response files to handle very long command lines (Windows) * https://github.com/haskell/cabal/pull/2512 * https://github.com/haskell/cabal/issues/1681 * https://github.com/haskell/haddock/issues/285 * https://github.com/haskell/haddock/issues/379 * Correct the cross-package links for all haddock-generated documentation (All) * https://github.com/haskell/haddock/issues/385 * https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/10206 The shenanigans I did to get the Windows HP built using a hacked up cabal and haddock were not appropriate for a release (and so I never released my builds of the HP 2015.2.0.0 on the Windows platform). On top of that, once I finally got it all to build in this uncomfortable, un-reproducible way (e.g., hacked PATH to hacked binaries), I noticed all the cross-package and index links in the docs were wrong, which sealed the deal (as far as I was concerned) to not release it. I hope that the solutions to these two issues can be incorporated into 7.10.2, so that build process for the Windows HP will be worthy and suitable for such a release, and so that the documentation links will be correct and useful to the users.
