Hi devs,
How about putting it here every release? :
https://downloads.haskell.org/~ghc/latest/docs/html/ or
https://downloads.haskell.org/~ghc/latest/docs/
`core-spec.pdf` will be helpful.
But generating it in Windows is a bit complicated :)

Hello everyone,
Currently there is a typeset copy of the Core specification in the GHC repository. This means any time someone changes the specification the repository grows by around 300kB. While this isn't the end of the world, it's generally considered bad form to put generated files under version control.
Of course, the tools required to typeset the specification (ott and LaTeX) are non-trivial to install, so there is considerable convenience that comes from having a typeset version readily available.
I suggest that we remove the PDF from the repository but instead I can start including it in my nightly documentation builds. Any objections?
Cheers,
- Ben
