Re: [Haskell] [ANNOUNCE] GHC 9.2.3 released

[George Colpitts]

Hi

https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/-/issues/21506, ghc-9.4.1-alpha1 does
not install on macos, exists on 9.2.3 also. The workaround given in 21506
works. Do you want a ticket for this?

Thanks
George

FYI, gpg documentation is incorrect, should be your public key: 
http://pgp.mit.edu/pks/lookup?op=get=0x88b57fcf7db53b4db3bfa4b1588764fbe22d19c4
 


Thanks for the release!

[Haskell] [ANNOUNCE] GHC 9.2.3 released

[Zubin Duggal]

The GHC developers are very happy to at announce the availability of GHC
9.2.3. Binary distributions, source distributions, and documentation are
available at [`downloads.haskell.org`](https://downloads.haskell.org/ghc/9.2.3).

Download Page: https://www.haskell.org/ghc/download_ghc_9_2_3.html
Blog Post: https://www.haskell.org/ghc/blog/20220527-ghc-9.2.3-released.html

This release includes many bug-fixes and other improvements to 9.2.2 including:

 * A fix to a critical linking bug on Windows causing the 9.2.2 release
 to be unusable (#21196).

 * Numerous bug fixes for regressions and other issues in the
 typechecker (#2147, #21515, #20582, #20820, #21130, #21479).

 * Correctness bugs in the code generator and compiler backends (#21396,
 #20959, #21465).

 * Packaging fixes on many platforms (#20760, #21487, #21402).

 * Many others. See the [release notes][] for a full list.

As some of the fixed issues do affect correctness users are encouraged
to upgrade promptly.

We would like to thank Microsoft Azure, GitHub, IOG, the Zw3rk stake
pool, Tweag I/O, Serokell, Equinix, SimSpace, and other anonymous
contributors whose on-going financial and in-kind support has
facilitated GHC maintenance and release management over the years.
Finally, this release would not have been possible without the hundreds
of open-source contributors whose work comprise this release.

As always, do give this release a try and open a [ticket] if you see
anything amiss.

Happy compiling,

- Zubin

GHC.X.Hackage and GHC's release cycle

[Ben Gamari]

Hello all,

Recently in the Haskell Foundation's stability working group we have been
discussing various practical issues that Haskell users and prospective adopters
encounter around the ecosystem. During these discussions the topic of GHC's
release schedule and the ecosystem's process migration to new GHC releases has
come up repeatedly.

To address some of these issues, I have opened a pair of somewhat-related HF
Tech Proposals:

 * the GHC.X.Hackage proposal ([ghc.x.hackage]) seeks to extend the
   [head.hackage] infrastructure used to test GHC to enable use by
   library maintainers in porting and testing their libraries on new GHC
   releases.

 * the [tick-tock] release proposal seeks to provide better guidance to users
   needing long release lifecycles by designating every other release as a
   "long-term support" release, with 18-month backport window.

Given the wide applicability of these proposals we hope to gather feedback from
a broad swath of the community. If you have questions, opinions, or concerns on
either, please leave your feedback on the respective proposal. We look
forward to hearing from you.

Thanks!

 - Ben
