Fellow Haskell hackers, if you'd like your favorite Haskell packages to always compile in Nixpkgs, then you can tip the odds in your favor by becoming a package maintainer. Maintainers receive an e-mail from hydra.nixos.org every time the build status of their package changes, i.e. every time a successful build suddenly fails. This gives you the chance to respond quickly to the issue and help to fix it.
You have to do two things to enlist yourself as a maintainer: - Add your e-mail address to [1]. - Add your maintainer id to [2] and list all the packages you'd like to subscribe to. I hope you'll find this feature useful, Peter [1] https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/master/lib/maintainers.nix.
