[Haskell-cafe] Crossreferenced codebase for Stackage LTS 9.2 available

[Niklas Hambüchen]

I consider usages on Hackage an OK estimator of usages outside of
Stackage, certainly enough to get a first expression.

Also, with haskell-indexer becoming really easy to use, the maintainers
of off-Hackage code bases can themselves more easily determine whether
they use functions in question and chime into the discussion with real data.
