Welcome to our latest update! Note that we’re now publishing them every 3 weeks instead of every 2 weeks.
I’d like to highlight that Bartłomiej (who has almost completed his internship at IOG) has implemented two more GHC proposals:
Both of them are now merged. Thanks Bartek!
I’d also like to highlight the work of Luite for the GHC 9.8 release: we found that Emscripten recently changed one of its header file (sys/stat.h) that is used by the JS backend, breaking the ABI… It’s quite an unlikely event that happened just before a release (as usual…). Luite came up with a solution which should unlock the 9.8 release, at least from the JS backend front.
