From what I see I believe it's decided with a consensus after whoever does the required work of going through the bug tracker, write Changelog, NEWS, and release notes.
What's holding up a release with current darcs before the year ends? Does anybody have concerns with the reliability or backwards compatibility of the code found in darcs as of today?
Hi Carsten, There might be some easy things to fix to get xmonad & contrib to build with older ghcs. For example, things like "import Control.Exception" can easily be changed to "import Contol.Exception.Extensible", if that's the only change necessary to maintain compatibility with something as old as ghc-6.12. I've listed some highlights for the release I'll hopefully get out today: http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/Xmonad/Notable_changes_since_0.10 Other things to remember for the release are listed in: http://code.haskell.org/xmonad/TODO Adam
