Hi Magnus,

very good. I, for one, would be interested in having access to AUR. There are a few PKGBUILDs I'd like to update -- most importantly haskell-convertible-text.
Please give me a little more time (2 days, max) to get the new infrastructure up. Having AUR change now would force me to re-do some of the preparation steps.

I tried to join that organization on Github, but I couldn't figure out how to do it in the web front-end. Am I missing something? Or do you have to add users to the organization? If that's the case, my user name on Github is 'peti'.
Yes, you need to be added by an administrator, currently that's only me.

In the current stage of the project, I believe that everyone who is interested in maintaining Haskell packages on AUR should have the ability to do that. We can be more selective once we're overrun with volunteers.
Yes, I tend to agree... on the other hand I would like to see us get off AUR as soon as possible, but in my mind that can only happen once we have at least one tool that can grab packages out of our ABS tree (yes, 'bauerbill' I'm looking in your direction ;-).

I left a comment on haskell-convertible-text moments ago. It appears that it didn't get through. Who has access to the mailing list server configuration? Did Don share those passwords as well? I would assume that the message is being held up in some kind of moderation queue.
I don't have access to it. I know Don has access to that server, since he has sorted out an issues I've reported in the past. It also houses the other haskell mailing lists (cafe, beginners, libs, etc). /M -- Magnus Therning (OpenPGP: 0xAB4DFBA4) magnus＠therning．org Jabber: magnus＠therning．org http://therning.org/magnus identi.ca|twitter: magthe
