- **Continuous integration improvements** - Work on new CI systems for GHC has been slow, but thanks to the work of **Joachim Breitner** and **Gábor Páli**, GHC is now built on [ http://travis-ci.org](http://travis-ci.org) \[TravisCI\] as well as nightly builders of a variety of flavors and machines \[Builders\]. We're also hoping to investigate using a Continuous Integration system to help build against a stable set of selected Hackage packages, to help find issues with the releases more easily.
