  Is there a reason that the Haskell 2010 report is in a subdirectory of

http://www.haskell.org/onlinereport/   -- Haskell98
http://www.haskell.org/onlinereport/haskell2010/   -- Haskell2010

If it's for historical reasons - because books etc. use this URL for the
98 standard, then I'd highly recommend making a new directory called
"currentreport" or something (if there isn't one already).

IMO, a book author should expect that an URL like http://www.haskell.org/onlinereport/ could change to point to a new version, since it doesn't mention a version number or date anywhere.

The most sensible directory structure would be:

  http://www.haskell.org/onlinereport/
  http://www.haskell.org/onlinereport/haskell98
  http://www.haskell.org/onlinereport/haskell2010

Where the onlinereport/index.html says something like:

  Latest version:
   * <haskell2010>
  Previous versions:
   * <haskell98>
