Hi Michael,

If there was a daily snapshot build, I would be happy to set up some kind of regular process to download that snapshot and do a Stackage run on it. I'm currently blocked on this kind of activity, since I can't get a successful GHC 7.8 build due to my system using the Gold linker.
That would be great, both for GHC and for people who want to have their packages work on GHC HEAD without manually monitoring it.
There is http://deb.haskell.org/ which should produce daily debian packages for Debian wheezy. I guess if you are building on that platform, such packages are easiest to use (as you need no particular tooling to update and install). http://deb.haskell.org/dailies/latest/ is currently lagging due to temporary full disk, but I hope that by tomorrow, we have a new build.
There used to be daily snapshot builds at http://darcs.haskell.org/ghcBuilder/uploads/ but that is defuct (Can someone remove the link from http://www.haskell.org/ghc/download). I wonder if the “new” builder infrastructure at http://haskell.inf.elte.hu/builders/ assembles the snapshots somewhere, then you can use them.
Some builders such as upload snapshots but I don't know how it's decided which. See [1] for example of such build. I think Pali makes the call.
Or you can build GHC yourself as part of the stackage run.
Greetings, Joachim
