For infrequent updaters like myself, it would also be nice just to have a HEADS UP before and after periods of larger than usual instability (such as build system replacements). And, talking about #ghc, I've got the suspicion that this channel is partly to blame for the occasional disappearance of critical information: did I just miss the messages here on cvs-ghc or was the discussion on #ghc instead?
We don't send announcements or "heads-up"-type messages to #ghc, so don't worry you're not missing anything by not watching the channel 24/7.
With no logs for #ghc to browse, I've got no idea what useful information #ghc inhabitants assume to be widely known!-) Couldn't lambdabot or some other bot file daily logs for #ghc somewhere, similar to the logs for #haskell? Then I could check whether my issues are new or well-known.
Hmm, I thought we *did* have IRC logs, but I'm not sure where they're put. We certainly used to have them. Perhaps someone responsible for lambdabot knows? Cheers, Simon
