[Haskell-cafe] Request for Changelogs

[Max Desyatov]

Did you see these tickets
http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/299
http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/244 ?

Probably the real proposal could be fixed in comments for that tickets,
so anyone who wants to implement that feature would see all possible
solutions in one place, without browsing through haskell-cafe archives.
