Technical Discussion of Cabal Improvements

I've not noticed anything but PR and commit traffic on this list in the
past couple of weeks; is it also the place to have discussions about
(possibly radical) improvements to Cabal? For example, automatic
generation of lists of dependent packages and so on?

Yes! :-) More discussion! More volunteers to implement the results of our discussion! ;-)

That one comes under the heading of Cabal-2.x. Once we do chasing of .hs files then finding which packages they depend on is fairly straightforward. Duncan
