This isn't a criticism: one of the hardest thing to do is to accurately convey this underwater stuff. But I wonder whether there might be a useful paper hiding here? Something that establishes terminology, writes down principles, explains the Cabal viewpoint, contrasts with alternatives, and thereby allows discussion about Cabal to be better informed.
I think we're at the point where such a document is necessary if we're going to have a coherent discussion. (And as an aside, I think the same is true of darcs.)
