I really don't see anything wrong with using Hoogle to increase awareness (although I would appreciate it if platform-specific packages were searched as an option).
You won't hear me argue against it, in fact, I argued in favour of it. Increasing awareness of cross-platform solutions, as well as providing them, is a very different thing than demanding cross-platform support. If 80% of all computer users use Windows, there shouldn't be any problems recruiting a decent number of volunteers to care about Haskell's Windoze support, should there? -- (c) this sig last receiving data processing entity.
