RE: Which language extensions to register for Cabal 1.22?
| ...which of the following language extensions (which are mentioned in | T4437) are deemed stable enough to be registered in Cabal for GHC | 7.10? I'm not sure what criteria you'd like to use! PatternSynonyms, PartialTypeSignatures, and NamedWildCards are all pretty stable and should go in. StaticPointers will definitely continue to be there in future; but the details of the API may change, and the current implementation is very much a prototype.

I'm not sure what the criteria are either, but I guess DeriveAnyClass is
comparable to the other extensions mentioned.
Cheers,
