Hello everyone, As you likely know the GHC 8.0.1 release is quickly approaching. The release candidate should be out any moment now and we anticipate a final release in mid-February. Consequently, we should start thinking about how we will manage the Cabal release. Duncan has said that his nix-local-builds branch should be in good enough shape to be included as a technology preview with the GHC 8.0 release. Within what timeframe in particular do you think we'll be able to have a release tagged and (and ideally released)? Is late January possible? Cheers, - Ben

Yes, I think it should be possible. In fact, all Cabal library changes required by nix-local-build and hackage-security are already in. I plan to merge some remaining open PRs and then create the 1.24 branch.
