Hi, I am proposing a GSoC project on Cabal. It aims to open up the dependency solver for debugging purposes. The details are here: https://gist.github.com/mr-/7995081f89cff38e9443 I would really like to hear what you think about it. Best regards, Martin

Hi. Martin and I have already talked about this project quite a bit. I think it would be very useful functionality to have, and there's a good progression from some goals that are relatively easy to reach with low risk (but already useful) to other goals that are much more advanced and ambitious that will ensure that there's not going to be a shortage of work. The project would have the additional benefit of someone who is not me having to work deep within the modular dependency solver, which would hopefully result in improved documentation and possibly some refactorings that make the code easier to understand. (And yes, I would be willing to be mentor for this project.) Cheers, Andres -- Andres Löh, Haskell Consultant Well-Typed LLP, http://www.well-typed.com

Sounds like a good idea. Go ahead and apply. :)
