Does anybody have suggestions on how we could go about this? Trent has posted some useful facts about Debian/Ubuntu clearly long past GHC 6.4 usage. A phone home feature and harvesting the data seems like it might be far off. In the meantime, would an informal poll do the trick? Could you let us know if you are using GHC 6.4 or somebody you know is (and you think that upgrading to a later GHC would be too difficult?).
