I think the current policy is to support whatever the current Debian stable provides (which is a patched GHC 6.8.2 at the moment). I've taken the liberty of documenting it here http://wiki.darcs.net/Development/Policy I'm definitely keen to hear if there are ways we can loosen this without hurting Debian folks too much. Maybe Darcs has reached a point where we can afford for people on Debian stable to just stick with old Darcs? Dumping old GHC would make me happy. -- Eric Kow <http://www.nltg.brighton.ac.uk/home/Eric.Kow> PGP Key ID: 08AC04F9
