Well done.  
I am impressed with how fast this has been, given GHC 9.8.1 is only just released.  
And both GHC and HLS already on ghcup.

This is indeed good to see, and is all thanks to the HLS Open Collective, which is funding Well-Typed (primarily in the person of @wz1000) to make sure HLS gets promptly upgraded to new GHCs.
