#237: Support addition of links to Cabal project pages --------------------------------+------------------------------------------- Reporter: dons | Owner: dons@galois.com 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 nominolo): Hm, maybe we should split the description field into short-description and long-description or similar. Or, like in Emacs introduce the convention that the first 80 characters or the first sentence are a short description of the respective package, to be used in overview pages. If people adds lots and lots of links to the description field, the layout of the package site on Hackage might also be less functional since some information would move down. -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/237#comment:2 Hackage http://haskell.org/cabal/ Hackage: Cabal and related projects
