Hi John,
I’m just catching up on the list after a long hiatus, so sorry for the
wait.

Yes! That would be great. The way I see it, there are three things we
should do:
1. Make a change for <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/39309>
2. Update GHC to 8.8.3
3. Update all of the “ghc-*” packages to their LTS 15 versions
I’ve been meaning to get started on all of this, and this is nice
reminder to do so! :) I have something ready for [1], and I have a
couple of scripts for getting [3] off the ground quickly. It would be
great if you could take a look at [2]. (Although, if you’ve started
working on [3] already, we can make different arrangements – let me
know.)
AFAIK, we are OK to use the wip-haskell branch. I will reset it to
master and get started today or tomorrow.
