Hackage

Hackage ideas.

• Open for all, no admin intervention required.
• Two project modes: listing and hosting.
• Listing:
  • darcs repo and distributions are kept offsite. Hackage only keeps meta information about the package/project.
• Hosting:
  • Hackage will host the darcs repo, manage new releases and build haddock documentation.

Features of hosting:

• Manage branches of the darcs repo.
• Bug/feature tracking?
• Project info page (wiki-like?)

Assumtions:

• Darcs is the one true revision control system.
• One darcs repo per package.
