To remind people of an issue I have brought up in the past:
Could this version of HP please also include an installer for Linux
that does not
include the OpenGL-related packages? This is needed to be able to install
HP on a headless Linux server. Otherwise, the only way to install HP
is to install a boatload of X server dependencies, and possibly even the
X server itself, defeating the whole purpose of having a headless server.
Thanks,
Yitz

Here is the current status of the 2013.4.0.0 proposal.
Outstanding Issues We have a few decisions outstanding, and I'd like to have these decided by Nov. 23 (one week).
fgl - waiting to hear if Ivan will have new version ready in time. aeson / dlist - there are serveral options -- I'll start a separate thread on this topic. alex / happy - I'd like to hear an "okay" from the maintainers on the major version bump
Current Proposed Versions GHC 7.6.3 -- same as last time (erroneously listed as a version bump last time)
Packages with no changes: fgl, haskell-src, html, HUnit, mtl, parsec, QuickCheck, random, regex-base, regex-compat, regex-posix, split, stm, text, transformers, xhtml, zlib
Packages held back: cgi: 3001.1.7.5 (3001.1.8.4 requires MonadCatchIO-mtl)
Packages with minor version bumps: HTTP: 4000.2.8 → 4000.2.9 network: 2.4.1.2 → 2.4.2.0 parallel: 3.2.0.3 → 3.2.0.4 syb: 0.4.0 → 0.4.1 unordered-containers: 0.2.3.0 → 0.2.3.3 vector: 0.10.0.1 → 0.10.9.1? primitive: 0.5.0.1 → 0.5.1.0?
Packages with major version bumps: case-insensitive: 1.0.0.1 → 1.1.0.1 hashable: 1.1.2.5 → 1.2.1.0
GLUT: 2.4.0.0 → 2.5.0.1 GLURaw: 1.3.0.0 → 1.4.0.0 OpenGL: 2.8.0.0 → 2.9.1.0 OpenGLRaw: 1.3.0.0 → 1.4.0.0
alex: 3.0.5 → 3.1.0 pending okay happy: 1.18.10 → 1.19.0 pending okay
Cabal: Cabal: 1.16.0 → 1.18.1.2 consensus seems to be that this will be okay cabal-install: 1.16.0.2 → 1.18.0.2
Platform Packagers: This is likely to be the last HP source release that contains all the ad hoc scripts for packaging. I canvased the group last time and as I recall, everyone said they just used the .cabal file - and no one used the scripts. I plan to replace them with a new tool built for the needs of the release, and ditch this old set of scripts. If you need 'em, speak now, or forever hold your peace!
