Got it, thanks.
Is there a time when I can hang out on #haskell (or other channel) to
get some questions answered? For example, when trying to install cabal
itself, running
ghc -v --make Setup.lhs -o setup
currently fails for me with:
Could not find module `System.FilePath':
locations searched:
System/FilePath.hs
System/FilePath.lhs
(imported from ./Distribution/Simple.hs)
I'm running ghc 6.4.2 - I've found some hints that I should use 6.6.1,
but I'm not quite sure of it.
Thanks,
Simon

Hi,
I'm just starting learning Haskell (went through a couple of tutorials and wrote simple examples), and I'm looking for a project to help out with. I've been pointed at recent Duncan's request for help - let me know what problems (simple for now) I can work on (Easy Tickets?).
Our big list of tickets is here: (defects grouped by priority)
We're coming up to a release and one thing we'll need to do is make sure all the commands and flags are fully documented in the user guide. This would involve modifying the doc/Cabal.xml docbook file:
http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/109
Making sure cabal-install compiles with the latest version of Cabal is a priority and should be fairly easy, there have been some api changes. Then it's a matter of testing and seeing what still needs improving.
