Good idea. Duncan?

I'm trying to work out what the best thing is to do with the Cabal documentation. Currently it's kind of patchy and spread over about three sites. There's the http://haskell.org/cabal website, the dev wiki and trac and the pages on the main Haskell.org wiki. I think ideally we'd have all the user documentation on the cabal website, including the docs for cabal-install. Unless people think that's a silly idea and we should just put everything on the haskellwiki system. Suggestions? Duncan

... and it's divided into cabal and cabal-install documentation. Though, this separation might also be sensible.

For me, access to HaskellWiki is the easiest, because I have no access to haskell.org/cabal I think. :-) In general people might like to add personal comments about cabal, which is best done in the wiki. E.g. if you solve a problem you can quickly add that solution to the FAQ. I don't mind having an official "static" site like haskell.org/cabal which points to a "dynamic" haskellwiki/Cabal and vice versa, but I think another page at haskell.org/trac is redundant.
