It's not surprising if it's not public. No one is surprised that no
one has mentioned the internal Google build system, for instance.

It's good to see this, but is it usable yet? I was assuming from the
fact that it's not on hackage yet that it's still experimental. If
Shake is still "hopefully" going to be released then maybe there's not
a lot of motivation to work on a replacement, but if it's in "no one
knows" limbo then that could stall a replacement too. I don't really
care so much about build systems that I'd write one from scratch or
bootstrap an experiment, but if there were something that was already
usable that would be a different story...
