Haddock - is there any reason not to use the version built and distributed with GHC 7.8?

from the package perspective also, +1 for continuing to use the haddock in ghc.

shipped with GHC, but not registered in pkg-db, yet possible useful to include in platform:
        - haskeline-0.7.1.2
        - terminfo-0.4.0.0
        - xhtml-3000.2.1 -- already in platform, but HP re-builds it... seems silly

I would like to see ghc shipping these libs registered.

hscolour - never approved as part of platform, but we use it to generate the haddock in both GHC and the Platform - shouldn't we just include it?

+1

I actually wish it could be included in ghc too, next to haddock.

dlist (needed by aeson, which version?)

Sounds good to me. I am all for more libraries in Platform.
