Releasing it on the 15th or a few days later will put significant burden onto integrators, and distributors. To react to the ghc release. Especially right before the holiday season for quite some.

Hi all,

We are planning a release in the 9.6 series before Christmas, with a
preliminary ETA of 15th December.

Release tracking ticket: https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/-/issues/24017
Please use this ticket to request any submodule bumps or for any other
discussion related to the release.

If you would like any patches to be considered for inclusion in this
release please ensure that the corresponding Merge Requests are marked
with the ~"backport needed:9.6" label.

The current set of all MRs being considered for inclusion can be viewed at
https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/-/merge_requests?scope=all&state=all&label_name[]=backport%20needed%3A9.6

Cheers,
Zubin
