The Haskell Platform wiki page says the platform follows a 6-month release schedule, yet the last release occurred more than one year ago, and I couldn't find information about future plans.
Are there plans to update the platform with ghc 7.8.2?
The Platform keeps getting stuck waiting for GHC. The skipped release was because ghc 7.8 took some 6 months after "we plan to release just before ICFP 2013"(!); now it's waiting on ghc 7.8.3 bug fixes, which were "should be released by the end of the week" a couple of weeks ago. :( 7.8.3's bug fixes are significant enough that it would be bad to release a platform without them. -- brandon s allbery kf8nh sine nomine associates allbery.b@gmail.com ballbery@sinenomine.net unix, openafs, kerberos, infrastructure, xmonad http://sinenomine.net
