Does this mean that before the todays change, anyone (or anything)
could register and upload packages without any review and without
any acknowledgement for trustfulness by another person? Does it
maen that one can't trust *any* package on hackage.haskell.org at
least a little bit (based on trust between acknowledging persons
and reputation) without reviewing the package's source code?
Ciao,
