I get regular error message from some Debian tools that check for new upstream versions that it cannot find http://haskell.org/hmake, and http://haskell.org/gtk2hs seems to be gone as well since the recent move of haskell.org. Is that temporary or will these projects have to find new homes?

There's a thread on the haskell list concerning this topic:

http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lang.haskell.general/18358

I just discovered this breakage while investigating the state of HaXml.  Without your message, I would have thought that HaXml is abandonware because all the links seem to be broken.  But then I discovered the discussion.

In your case, the working links appear to be these:

http://haskell.cs.yale.edu/hmake/ http://haskell.cs.yale.edu/gtk2hs/

So the net effect will be a migration from haskell.org to haskell.cs.yale.edu, and not to community.haskell.org.  I think that's pretty odd, but people will have their reasons for doing it this way.

No, I think these websites just haven't been moved, yet. haskell.cs.yale.edu was the location of haskell.org before the move and the content is therefore still there. Only haskell.org now points to the new server which does not host these sites. The policy for the new server is different, so they won't be hosted directly on the new server. The correct new location will be community.haskell.org. However, we can create redirects, so the old links will still work. The procedure for the site maintainers is therefore the same as mentioned in the thread you linked: 1. Get an account on community.haskell.org 2. Copy site content over. 3. Ask for a redirect from haskell.org/<project> to community.haskell.org/<project> at http://community.haskell.org/admin/ -- Push the envelope. Watch it bend.
