I found a list of StackOverflow clones. (I don't know how difficult it is to get an official StackExchange site, or if we would even want that) http://meta.stackexchange.com/questions/2267/stack-exchange-clones On Fri, Sep 23, 2016, at 18:44, Simon Peyton Jones via ghc-devs wrote:

Here are the notes I took from session 2 of the Haskell Implementors Meeting. The bolding is my choice of emphasis.
Simon
* Doc bugs. Two kinds
o Typos. Friction stops me
o Explanations needed e.g. read/show
* Lightweight pushes
* Make user manual into its own repo, to make it easier to take pull requests. But that makes it harder when making synchronised changes to GHC and user manual.
* Auto-push: Ability to push to Phab and have it committed automatically if it validates.
* Style guides. Is having a defined style solving a problem we don't really have? One piece of guidance: adhere to the style of the surrounding code. Low priority.
* Docker images. We should have one.
* Remove old documentation!
* Cross compilation is difficult.
* Have a GHC StackOverflow on haskell.org (Jacob Zalewski jakzale@gmail.commailto:jakzale@gmail.com offers to do this! - thank you). It has a useful new Documentation feature. Eg this would be good for "how do I look up a RdrName to get a Name... there seem to be six different functions that do that". _______________________________________________ ghc-devs mailing list ghc-devs@haskell.org http://mail.haskell.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/ghc-devs
