> Andres: draft HCAR entry for GHC is here: > http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/Status/October06 trying to look form casual reader POV, i strongly recommend to split this into 3 sections: first about 6.6. tell here that main improvement comparing to 6.4 is SMP support and give links to full whatsnew and download pages second section about HEAD improvements, it should make clear that it is the future 6.8 version that is currently under heavy development (sorry, but HEAD isn't descriptive for casual reader). again, download link will be great. btw, how about starting whatsnew (readme) page for this version just and don't postpone it until actual release. i think, this should make life easier both for you (it's easier to record the progress as it gone instead of recalling all the things done in last 1-2 years) and for us (no need to dig into ghc-cvs archives to learn what interesting features are in current HEAD snapshot) third section should mention features that is currently separate from GHC but planned to be included btw, what are "data-parallel extensions" you plan to release before Christmas? any paper, wiki? in general, it will be great to include in each item some url to further info thank you for compiling this list. like the readme lists all the new beasts in 6.6, this page lists all the new interesting things in HEAD version and it is the great source of information! -- Best regards, Bulat mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Cvs-ghc mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/cvs-ghc
