+How to get it
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+The easy way is to go to the web page, which should be self-explanatory:
+
+ http://www.haskell.org/ghc/
+
+We supply binary builds in the native package format for many
+platforms, and the source distribution is available from the same
+place.
+
+Packages will appear as they are built - if the package for your
+system isn't available yet, please try again later.
+
+
+Background
+~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Haskell is a standard lazy functional programming language; the
+current language version is Haskell 98, agreed in December 1998 and
+revised December 2002.
+
+GHC is a state-of-the-art programming suite for Haskell. Included is
+an optimising compiler generating good code for a variety of
+platforms, together with an interactive system for convenient, quick
+development. The distribution includes space and time profiling
+facilities, a large collection of libraries, and support for various
+language extensions, including concurrency, exceptions, and foreign
+language interfaces (C, whatever). GHC is distributed under a
+BSD-style open source license.
+
+A wide variety of Haskell related resources (tutorials, libraries,
+specifications, documentation, compilers, interpreters, references,
+contact information, links to research groups) are available from the
+Haskell home page (see below).
