I would encourage you to upload it to Hackage regardless of its
supposed maturity, especially if you want feedback. I'm not sure why
you would be hesitant to upload your package;
Because I'm very strict with my code.
I don't even release my Python packages on http://pypi.python.org/pypi,
and I'm much more expert in Python ;-).
Hackage hosts an
extremely wide range of packages in terms of maturity, and that's a
good thing. It also provides a very convenient method (in combination
with cabal-install) of disseminating libraries. I am several orders
of magnitude more likely to try something out if I can just 'cabal
install foo' than if I have to manually download and unpack a tarball
myself, and I doubt I am alone in this.
It should be possible to do:
cabal install http://haskell.mperillo.ath.cx/random-stream-0.0.1.tar.gz
It's unfortunate that this is not supported.
Thanks Manlio
