ANN: Portackage - a hackage portal

Hello, This is to announce a provisional webpage to summarise hackage.haskell.org. http://www.fremissant.net/portackage It is a lot of data, so will be a bit slow to load. Columns can be sorted by clicking the headers, but this will also take some seconds on a typical client. The initial sort is by module name. Clicking a table row links to the project page on hackage. Although I believe this is a complete list of all packages/modules in hackage, it is probably still buggy, so if you see anything amiss please let me know. Also, a subsequent version in the near future will update automatically based on the http://hackage.haskell.org/packages/archive/recent.rss RSS feed, but for now it's based on a recent snapshot. Haskell code which prepares the page will be released after a few more days testing and refinement. Some previous work [1] provided a list of all modules, but is not being maintained, and I was unable to rearouse the author's interest. Feature requests and suggestions are welcome!

Somewhat lighter, using summarised module lists. A more sophistocated
UI with per-column filtering is in the works. I invite your comments.
