The (Interactive) Glasgow Haskell Compiler -- version 7.6.2
=============================================================

The GHC Team is pleased to announce a new major release of GHC, 7.6.1.
The GHC Team is pleased to announce a new major release of GHC, 7.6.2.

Here are some of the highlights of the 7.6 branch since 7.4:

* Polymorphic kinds and data promotion are now fully implemented and
supported features.

* Windows 64bit is now a supported platform.

* It is now possible to defer type errors until runtime using the
-fdefer-type-errors flag.

* The RTS now supports changing the number of capabilities at runtime
with Control.Concurrent.setNumCapabilities.
This release fixes a number of bugs relative to 7.6.1, so we recommend
upgrading.

Full release notes are here:
