58+## Upgrading to a new GHC version
59+
60+The Stackage curation team tries to move Stackage Nightly to new versions of GHC quickly as they become available, while keeping LTS Haskell on a regular release schedule. For package maintainers, the most important impacts of a new GHC release are:
61+
62+* We will typically do a sweep through the Stackage upper bounds and aggressively remove packages that block them. This is because, in most cases, we will need to move to the newest versions of a package to get support for the latest GHC, and asking package maintainers to backport their fixes is an undue burden
63+ * We will definitely do this at a GHC major version release, and may do so at a minor version release
64+* Packages that are incompatible with the newest GHC version will be temporarily blocked
65+
66+If your package ends up being temporarily removed from Stackage Nightly, please simply send a pull request to add it back once it and its dependencies are compatible with the newest GHC version.
