Here is what I propose to do regarding the libraries we ship with GHC
6.6.  Comments are appreciated, since we need to finalise this story
before the release candidate at the end of this week.

Seems pretty reasonable over all.

 - We will continue to bundle the .tar.bz2 binary distributions, and
   the Windows installer, with all the optional packages.  Perhaps
   there could also be minimal installers containing just the core
   packages.

For the windows installer, I imagine this working something like the
cygwin or ms office installer.  There could be a screen listing all
the libraries and the installer itself comes in two flavors, either
contains only the minimum (and uses the network to grab any
additional) or the installer contains everything and lets the user
select which packages to install (defaulting to everything).

Thanks,
Jason
