In addition to numerous new and upgraded packages, this release has the following highlights:
- The [Haskell](http://haskell.org/) packages infrastructure has been re-designed from the ground up ("Haskell NG"). NixOS now distributes the latest version of every single package registered on [Hackage](http://hackage.haskell.org/)\-- well in excess of 8,000 Haskell packages. Detailed instructions on how to use that infrastructure can be found in the [User's Guide to the Haskell Infrastructure](https://nixos.org/nixpkgs/manual/#users-guide-to-the-haskell-infrastructure). Users migrating from an earlier release may find helpful information below, in the list of backwards-incompatible changes. Furthermore, we distribute 51(!) additional Haskell package sets that provide every single [LTS Haskell](http://www.stackage.org/) release since version 0.0 as well as the most recent [Stackage Nightly](http://www.stackage.org/) snapshot. The announcement ["Full Stackage Support in Nixpkgs"](https://nixos.org/nix-dev/2015-September/018138.html) gives additional details.
