No. Not the right thing for cabal the package system to do. > - haddock currently seems bundled with ghc, for interdependency > reasons They're both in the platform. > - shouldn't there be some compilers in the platform release as well > (and possibly a language/library report)? The platform depends on GHC, and a specific release of the core libraries No, the platform doesn't specify the language. The library report is the haddock documentation however. > - I'd like to see ghc-paths somewhere, too. > Registering programs with cabal or having ghc installation info via > ghc-paths may look minor, as the packages would be tiny, with > meta-information only, but that is surprisingly useful. The initial is just extralibs + cabal-install We need to work out the ticket creation process first before adding new pieces. > (*) please could the email notifications be switched on for > haskell.org-hosted trackers by default (haven't tried this one > yet, but notifications are off for haddock's tracker)? Trackers > that don't inform anyone of ticket activity are of limited use;-) Good idea.
