Don't expect it to be ready for 6.6 release! i don't develop it, so i can't complain, but just for case anyone can take it - msi installer uses MS lzx (cabarc) compression algorithm. there is a better compression algorithm, called lzma, which makes compressed GHC bundle about 20% smaller. one can either use MSI installer containing one large lzma archive unpakced to temp dir, or Nullsoft installer that supports lzma directly, to cut off size of installer. it's important for mans like me with modem access/paid traffic -- Best regards, Bulat mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Glasgow-haskell-users mailing list Glasgow-haskell-users@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/glasgow-haskell-users
