I very much hope that HP will be here soon too. I understand that you don't want to be in the library distribution business, but since you started down that road you are stuck with it until there's a viable replacement. -- Lennart On Thu, Apr 16, 2009 at 11:32 AM, Simon Peyton-Jones <simonpj@microsoft.com> wrote:

I talked to Ian about this yesterday. I agree it was rude to remove it in a patch-level release.
We hope that someone at this weekend's will put up a binary distribution of 'time' for GHC 6.10.2. If they don't, we'll re-roll the 6.10.2 bundle (on Windows only) including time again, so that you can re-download.
We are trying hard to get out of the library distribution business, in favour of the Haskell Platform, for which there should be binary installers. I very very very much hope that the HP is firmly online by the time we get to 6.12.
