All, I've started a wiki page to collect ideas for Cabal 2 http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/wiki/Cabal-2 The basic idea for Cabal 2 is to learn lessons from our how the existing design has fared and how we can make a better design to tackle an expanded set of goals. I'd like the page to be about suggested design concepts. I don't want to fill it with "wouldn't it be nice if we had a feature to help me doing ..." I guess it would also be useful to make links on that page to some of the discussions we've had on various lists, eg on the ghc users and libraries mailing lists where various people have made criticisms of the current design and suggested alternatives and improvements.
