Milestones page is missing or has inaccurate dates

Hi The Milestones page https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/-/milestones is missing many dates or has inaccurate dates: - Most milestones don't have any associated completion date. - As far as I know 9.4.2 and 9.2.4 are released but the milestones pages doesn't seem to show that. Can the page be updated so we have an idea of what is coming when? There has been a lot of great work done and I know a lot is being worked on. It would be great if the milestones page could be updated to better reflect that. Thanks George

I have updated the dates of 9.4.2, 9.4.3, 9.2.4, and 9.6.1. In short, * 9.6.1 is scheduled for some time in January 2023; we plan to fork for this release next month * I am actively working on backports for 9.4.3 as we speak * my colleague Zubin will be working on 9.2.4 next week, hopefully for release the following week * 9.4.2 was released in late August There are quite a few other milestones which lack dates; for the most part these are releases which don't have a formal timeline yet. Cheers, - Ben

Hi Ben
Thanks for the very quick response which addresses my concerns ! However
I'm confused by
- my colleague Zubin will be working on 9.2.4 next week, hopefully for
release the following week
Zubin sent mail on July 28th with a subject line of "[Haskell] [ANNOUNCE]
GHC 9.2.4 released". I'm running it
- $ ghc --version
The Glorious Glasgow Haskell Compilation System, version 9.2.4
Thanks again
George

I think 9.2.4 got released early because of
https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/-/issues/21708, and the milestone
needs to be updated.

Sigh, indeed I had meant 9.2.5 here; apologies for the confusion. Cheers, - Ben
