Perhaps they look there, perhaps they don't. Between Bryan and me we build all of our own packages and all HP packages on the latest 3 GHC versions: http://ci.johantibell.com/ https://jenkins.serpentine.com/ That doesn't mean that it would be a bad idea to build all Hackage packages on using more GHC versions, but that won't happen until the Hackage project is unstuck (it has been stuck for years!). -- Johan
