Yes, but I don't like the thought of having to validate GHC every time
I push something. I think Neil's suggestion sounds good. With a
separate branch, it's too easy for GHC developers too push something
that's not compatible with earlier GHCs.

Yes we can. Perhaps you can do it since you're administrating
community and know which people it would be best to add?
