No objections from me.  Sounds like a good idea.

| I think it would probably be a good idea to move the External Core
| library out of the GHC tree and onto Hackage (or something), since it
| isn't needed to build GHC, and it was presumably only there in the
| first place because Hackage didn't exist at the time.  (And
| admittedly, mostly because I don't want to make sure I have a GHC tree
| that I can actually push patches from every time I want to check
| something in under utils/ext-core.)
|
| Any objections?
|
| Cheers,
| Tim
