Don, Duncan

As you know, we're planning to produce GHC 6.10 with "batteries not included", 
relying on the Haskell Platform for the batteries.  We are working v hard to 
get 6.10 ready for release-candidate on 19 Sept.

But http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/Haskell_Platform seems dormant; it has 
not been modified for a month. So I'm a bit worried that we'll produce GHC but 
it won't have any batteries!

Can you let us know what your plans are, esp concerning timescale?   The steps 
under "Next steps" look fine... but they need be executed.  Are you planning a 
release candidate, which people can try against the release candidate GHC?

I know that you want to decouple the GHC release from the HP release.  But if 
there was to be, say, a three month delay then there really would not be much 
point in running fast to ship GHC... we might instead re-plan our release cycle.

Sorry if all this is in hand and I've simply missed it.

Simon
