Hi Herbert,

Ian has handed the task over to me, so I'll be leading the switchover,
along with the admins we've recruited.

We have a few issues we're still working on, mainly to do with
importing the old data and making the account switchover smooth.

https://github.com/haskell/cabal/issues?labels=hackage2%2Cimportant&state=open

I'll post more details on the cabal-devel mailing list in the coming
days, so you can follow it there.

[Haskell] Hackage2 server testing

[Ian Lynagh]

Dear Haskellers,

I am pleased to announce that a test instance of the Hackage 2 server is
now running at
http://new-hackage.haskell.org/

The plan is to test the new server for 3 weeks (until Monday 24
September), before switching over to Hackage 2 for real.

The server has a mirror of Hackage from about a month ago, but more
recent uploads are not automatically mirrored. In order to upload
packages to it, you will need to sign up for an account and then mail
the Hackage admins (hackage-ad...@haskell.org), telling them your
username and asking to be added to the 'uploaders' group.

If you run into any problems, please either file a ticket tagged
'hackage2' at https://github.com/haskell/cabal/issues or send an e-mail
to the cabal-de...@haskell.org mailing list.


A few more details about the plan: Assuming no major issues are found,
the plan for after Monday is to disable uploads to the current Hackage
server, to make an up-to-date mirror of it, and then to switch over to
Hackage 2.


Finally, I would like to thank the Industrial Haskell Group
(http://industry.haskell.org/) for funding this work.


Thanks
Ian
