#299: Add changelog feature to hackagedb --------------------------------+------------------------------------------- Reporter: guest | Owner: Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: hackageDB website | Version: 1.2.3.0 Severity: normal | Resolution: Keywords: | Difficulty: normal Ghcversion: 6.8.2 | Platform: --------------------------------+------------------------------------------- Comment (by wolverian): For what it's worth, CPAN doesn't (as for now) mandate a specific Changelog format, and the interfaces do not display diffs, but simply link to the Changes/CHANGELOG/etc file[1]. Going down that route would of course end up in difficulties if we wanted to mandate a specific format in the future, unless we use versioning bits. The point is that this is much easier to do than figuring out a real design for the Changelog format. [1]: E.g. The [http://search.cpan.org/dist/Moose/ overview page] and the [http://cpansearch.perl.org/src/DROLSKY/Moose-0.72/Changes Changes file] linked to from there. -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/299#comment:5 Hackage http://haskell.org/cabal/ Hackage: Cabal and related projects
