Dear CLC members,

GHC HQ and David (who is an acting maintainer) has kindly agreed for `hpc` (https://hackage.haskell.org/package/hpc), which is a GHC boot library used for code coverage, and `hpc-bin` (which is a corresponding executable) to be adopted by CLC as core packages. Could we please vote on it? This moves us forward nicely towards having more boot libraries under the CLC aegis.

Let’s also appoint David an official maintainer of both packages (their development has been largely abandoned before David took over recently).

+1 from me on both counts.

Best regards,
Andrew

Thanks all, that’s enough votes to approve. (Votes from Tom and Melanie are in parallel threads).

I’ll update the list of core packages shortly.

Best regards,
Andrew
