We are pleased to announce that the GHC 6.10.0.20081007 snapshot is the first release candidate for GHC 6.10.1. You can download the release candidate from here: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/dist/stable/dist/6.10.1-rc-1/rc.html This page includes: * a Windows installer * an OS X installer * bindists for amd64/Linux and ix86/Linux * the sources There is also a status page here: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/GHC-6.10.1 where we will keep track of where the RC works, and where it is known to have problems. This is a wiki page, so please feel free to update it if you are able to add or update the information on a particular platform. Please test as much as possible; bugs are much cheaper if we find them before the release! We hope that we will be able to make the final release in around one weeks time, but of course that may slip if problems are uncovered. Thanks Ian, on behalf of the GHC team
