I do - I'm just a lame-o this cycle!

Please review the status below - I'll have the 'prerelease' branch in github updated this weekend, and packages out (src tarball and Mac installers) out this coming week.

- Mark

Resolved Issues
  • fgl - haven't heard from Ivan, so we'll stay with the status quo.
  • aeson / dlist - log round'a'bout discussion resulted in decision to omit aeson this cycle.
  • alex / happy - I haven't heard from the maintainers on the major version bump, but they are both active here and so I'm assuming it is a go.

Platform Packagers:
This will 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 tarball release, and ditch this old set of scripts.
