Hi folks,
I'd like to get feedback on a spec/proposal for distributing package
collections via hackage. This is currently somewhere beyond vapourware
but certainly not a fait accompli and hopefully it is at an appropriate
point to get feedback.
The basic idea is that package collections are:

I've been looking at making the mirror client supply the original

So stop looking for them. This could otherwise cause problems if one

Hi Hackagers,
I've written a rough-and-ready documentation building service for the

Hi all,
I'm very pleased to say that recently we've had a number of developers
express an interest in helping with the new hackage server, some at the
recent hackathons (HacPDX-II, CamHac) and some after my plea for help at
the recent Haskell Symposium.
I've tried to encourage everyone who's

Here's a another proposal.
Now when we start having more components in one package (library,

to specify what to build directly from the command line without

Hi Duncan,
Is there a planned date for a release which will have the detailed test
interface?
My hope is that it'll be ready in time to be included in a release of
Cabal to go along with GHC 7.4 towards the end of the year.
