Hi Derek, Thanks for your comments. Yes, I am probably going to focus on making it work as a web service and stay away from platform-specific mobile apps. Not been thinking mobile much at all, since the quantities of data are taxing even to my laptop, and also I'm inclined to believe people are mostly at a laptop or desktop when coding Haskell. However, I'm planning to try server-side sorting and filtering, and compare performance. No DB is used on the server yet, but it would be simple enough I suppose -- all this is quite new territory for me. Also my shared hosting resource limits may become a problem if this gets a lot of use. On the other hand, was planning to use persistence (cookies i guess?) to save the data on the client, so that patches based on Hackage RSS could be applied incrementally. Also, I think the sorting could be faster by sending per-column lists of indices. But maybe it is just the browser rendering which is taking all the time? I'll take this opportunity to announce a few improvements: - shift-click a row to see the Hackage page (bare click does nothing) - per-column filtering widgets Presently working on getting the "last updated" column, this information is not in a .cabal file but I'm hoping it is in the TAR metadata...
