Most of the other users of the fptools build system have migrated to
Cabal, and with the move to darcs we can now flatten the source tree
without losing history, so here goes.
The main change is that the ghc/ subdir is gone, and most of what it
contained is now at the top level. The build system now makes no
pretense at being multi-project, it is just the GHC build system.
No doubt this will break many things, and there will be a period of
instability while we fix the dependencies. A straightforward build
should work, but I haven't yet fixed binary/source distributions.
Changes to the Building Guide will follow, too.

As discussed at HIM in Cambridge, the GHC Commentary is now located in the
main repository. The idea is that any developer who wants to share his wisdom
with the world-at-large can alter the document. Obviously, it would be nice
to keep the structure and style of the document as I have written it so far
(admittedly not terribly much). In particular, please add links to the files
in CVS where appropriate. Moreover, I have now included a version number in
the title, which should be pumped whenever there are substantial changes;
check the file index.html.
I am planing to set up a cron job that updates the version of the Commentary
on my Web page with the CVS version every night (this is also the version
linked from GHC's documentation page).
