+### GHC Deprecation Policy {#ghc-deprecation-policy}
+
+We remove GHC versions according to the following policy:
+
+#### Major GHC versions {#major-ghc-deprecation}
+
+We keep the following GHC major versions:
+1. The current Stackage LTS as the default and all later major versions.
+2. The two latest major versions older than our default.
+3. The currently recommended GHCup version and all later major versions.
+
+Older GHC versions might be kept longer, if there are in-tree consumers. We will coordinate with the maintainers of those dependencies to find a way forward.
+
+#### Minor GHC versions {#minor-ghc-deprecation}
+
+Every major version has a default minor version. The default minor version will be updated as soon as viable without breakage.
+
+Older minor versions for a supported major version will only be kept, if they are the last supported version of a major Stackage LTS release.
