gitlab.haskell.org outage this weekend
by Ben Gamari 30 Mar '25

30 Mar '25

Hi all, As you may know, Haskell.org is currently in the process of moving its infrastructure to new hosting facilities. As part of this effort, GHC's GitLab instance will be taken down for migration on Saturday 29 March 2025 from 09:00 to 17:00. This includes our issue tracker, CI infrastructure, Docker registry, serving of artifacts. Apologies for the inconvenience but we hope that this will be the last time we need to have such a prolonged outage in quite a while. Cheers, - Ben

Haskell.org mailing list status
by Ben Gamari 20 Mar '25

Hi all, As you may have noticed, yesterday brought an unexpected influx of traffic from haskell.org's mailing lists. This was the result of fixing an interruption in mailing list message delivery which began in late February as a result of on-going infrastructure migration efforts. We are monitoring the situation to ensure that this issue does not recur but if you see anything amiss don't hesitate to contact admin(a)haskell.org. Thank you for your understanding and help! Cheers, - Ben

GHC 9.12.2 is now available
by Ben Gamari 15 Mar '25

15 Mar '25

The GHC developers are happy to announce the release of GHC 9.12.2. Binary distributions, source distributions, and documentation are available at [downloads.haskell.org] We hope to have this release available via `ghcup` shortly. This is a small release fixing a critical code generation bug, #25653, affecting some subword division operations. As always, GHC's release status, including planned future releases, can be found on the GHC Wiki [status]. We would like to thank IOG, the Zw3rk stake pool, Well-Typed, Tweag I/O, Serokell, Equinix, SimSpace, the Haskell Foundation, and other anonymous contributors whose on-going financial and in-kind support has facilitated GHC maintenance and release management over the years. Finally, this release would not have been possible without the hundreds of open-source contributors who contribute their code, tickets, and energy to the GHC project. As always, do give this release a try and open a [ticket] if you see anything amiss.
