4.  Meanwhile, we could get a lot more mileage from de-centralised
approaches.  Ideas I saw in this thread that sound attractive to me
are to make Hackage display, for each package:
  - date of last update
  - download statistics
  - some kind of voting scores, so users can vote for
        good packages (and add text comments, please)
  - auto-build system, so that there's a per-platform indication of
        whether the package builds; ideally, packages should come with
        a test suite, which could be run too
(Is this list complete?)
...
Those are the major things I think.
No Google page rank-alike?

I did a quick popularity count by wget'ting the whole thing, and
looking for hrefs under cgi-bin/packages/archive¹.  Not exact, as it
counts links to the previous version, but a rough approximation.  Page
rank would be better, as it would ascribe higher importance to a library
that is required by a more popular library.

Anyway, quick and inaccurate results:
