What does this mean for the Haskell Platform? Do we add time-locale? Removing old-locale is problematic since a number of packages in the HP depend on it:
haskell98 hpc old-time time cgi
But it's probably best to just update these packages to work with time and time-locale.

No, locale is not part of time. Nor am I interested in taking responsibility for it.
Actually, I suppose this depends on whether we still need to expose a "System.Locale". If not, probably better for the time package to not depend on old-locale and instead create a new type for time locale under Data.Time.LocalTime. -- Ashley
