Hi Howard,
Ah, I was under the impression that there would be a download link from the LTS
section on the download page.
Since there isn’t one I have updated the pull request with a section for
Haskell LTS which provides links to 7.8.4.
It will look like
https://github.com/Mistuke/hl/blob/update-windows-download-pages/static/markdown/windows-install.md

Tamar

Hi Windows Task Force,
Rather than pointing to just the latest 7.10.1 release, please consider having
7.10.1 and 7.8.4 links (and others if you wish). Haskell LTS 2.3 is designed
for GHC-7.8.4. It seems to me that many Windows users would find that an
attractive combination in addition to 7.10.1.
Howard

Fwding to the GHC Windows Task force, who will doubtless know what to do.

| Hi,
|
| Currently, the Haskell website's Windows download page
| (https://www.haskell.org/downloads/windows) offers two alternatives,
| MinGHC and Haskell Platform. The MinGHC alternative has a link to MinGHC-
| 7.8.3 installer. Should this be updated to MinGHC-7.8.4? I ask this
| because Long Term Support Haskell 2.3 is now using GHC 7.8.4. If you want
| to update the link, you only need to change the URL from 7.8.3 to 7.8.4.
