Hi all, - The HCAR entry was quickly completed last week thanks to everyone, much appreciated for the quick response! And it made me aware of some other new things in the pipeline, too. :) - Simon is in-progress reviewing the ORF work still. But it's happening, so be patient of course (it's a large patch after all). - After a short discussion last week and a small grace period I killed external core, and removed all traces of it from the GHC tree. We constantly add things to GHC as Richard noted, so removing something was nice, even if a little sad. The result was about 3,000 fewer lines in the source tree. - I need to send a patch upstream to Ross for the AMP changes, but I slacked off a bit since the release of the new transformers got pushed back, pending some discussions on libraries@haskell.org - I'll be sending the results to Ross later today. - I spent some time working on removing the need for a build from creation of the source distribution like I mentioned last week - so 'make sdist' almost works out of the box. I believe it works fine, but it needs some more testing, and I feel like I should float the patch by for review on the list first, Simon in particular might have something to say. Do watch this space. - I'm going to continue working on trying HEAD with Stackage and putting the results somewhere, I just sort of left this as is right now. Also, remember from last week, the 7.8.3 milestone has been shaped up to be what we will look at - please do look over the tickets here when you get a chance! I'll be likely seeing if any new tickets will go here today: https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/milestone/7.8.3 https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/query?status=infoneeded&status=merge&status=new&status=patch&group=status&milestone=7.8.3 Some other things worth noting: - It's time to merge up a lot of the patch queue. I'll be doing that soon - if you floated a patch by and want to discuss it or you want to make me aware of a patch you have, please let me know. At worst you will just inform me of something I already knew. - Side note, since a few people might be keen to know - Herbert took the time this week to move darcs.haskell.org onto a new server, effectively putting it in legacy mode. The switch has not yet happened, because we need to do a DNS switch. That's all, it was pretty light this week for me actually! We didn't actually have a call today yet actually, but we will have one next week and have more to say for sure. Do let me know if you have questions. -- Regards, Austin Seipp, Haskell Consultant Well-Typed LLP, http://www.well-typed.com/
Hi Austin,
Could you consider #9012 for 7.8.3?
