(just for historical completeness)
2.10 is missing from https://downloads.haskell.org/~ghc/ .
There is https://www.haskell.org/ghc/download_ghc_210.html ,
but the source link on that page is 404, and the wayback machine
claims not to have ftp://ftp.dcs.gla.ac.uk/pub/ .
Release dates are missing on https://www.haskell.org/ghc/download.html
(under "Older releases"). Dates are present at
https://www.haskell.org/ghc/ (under "News") but only from 6.10 onwards.
I used mail archive locations mentioned at
https://www.reddit.com/r/haskell/comments/6y2qbw/what_happened_to/ to find
that
0.29 was announced on 29 Jul 1996. The "first full release" (0.10) was at
11 Dec 92.
