A haskell transition isn't something we could describe as "a small

would take at least two weeks to have it done. We prefer to not start such
a transition at this stage. The freeze is approaching and we are working
hard
on getting *planned* transitions done in time. You should have raised

a bit earlier I'm afraid.
