Yes. There is no reason to put up a second Hackage for that one. Without changing anything in the current system, packages can just update their categories, so that they will be displayed below "Defunct" or something like that. This is fine, as only the categories of the latest version are significant. If you think this is a good idea, I will start with some of my packages. =) Greets, Ertugrul -- Not to be or to be and (not to be or to be and (not to be or to be and (not to be or to be and ... that is the list monad.
