Since the HP Minimal fits such a similar niche, perhaps we could adapt the existing minimal installer language in-place to point to HP Minimal, rather than removing it. Then we could modify the existing HP section in-place to clarify that it refers to HP Full.

Hello all,

I just realized that the Minimal installer listed first on the Downloads page (https://www.haskell.org/downloads) is deprecated and "dead". This creates an unfortunate situation where our top suggested way to get haskell immediately tells the user it's dead.

I think that we should remove mention of the minimal installer ASAP on the grounds that the HP now comes in minimal and full variants.

Furthermore, I would like to make the recommendation that we list the HP above other methods as even the minimal HP installer ships with stack (at least on windows it does).

Between the two changes, I think the first one is crucial and the second one is merely reasonable.

Thanks,

Jason
