--- Haddock 2.6.0
+-- Haddock 2.7.0
--------------------------------------------
A new version of Haddock, the Haskell documentation tool, is out!
-This is the version that comes with GHC 6.12.1. It contains the main results of
-Isaac Dupree's Summer of Code project, which are:
-
- * Cross-package documentation (exporting something that comes from another
- package is handled correctly. The full documentation of that thing shows
- up in your documentation)
-
- * Lexing and parsing of Haddock comment markup is moved from GHC back into
- Haddock. This will make it easier to make changes to the markup format
-
-We have decided to drop compatibility with older GHC versions in order to speed
-up development.
