Hi Gautier,

Indeed the task has been done.

Here is the current rebased branch - https://github.com/haskell/haddock/tree/ghc-head

tl;dr: Help needed to bring Haddock up-to-date for the GHC 8.0 release.

Hello everyone,

As you likely know, the GHC 8.0 release cycle is quickly drawing to a close. One of the tasks that remains outstanding is porting the patches on Haddock's `ghc-head` branch to `master`. This task is bound to require a bit more work than usual this time around as both GHC and Haddock have evolved significantly (which is a good thing!). Sadly, Austin and I are quite busy at the moment and would be hard-pressed to undertake such a task ourselves. Consequently, we need a volunteer to pick up this work.

At the moment the GHC release schedule is largely determined by progress on the no-kinds branch but we expect to have a release candidate out within the next two weeks. If we aren't able to find someone to bring haddock up-to-date by mid-January I'm afraid we'll have to release GHC 8.0 with the current state of the `ghc-head` branch. Considering the significant effort that went into this summer's GSoC projects, this would be a shame.

If you think you might be able to contribute to this effort, please say so in this thread.

Thanks for all of your effort,

- Ben
