We've had a productive discussion on this list, I think. But as many probably know, not all the discussions over this have been so positive.
+1 I am really happy about the positive, conciliatory tone the discussion has taken in the past few days. I had been disheartened by the schism that has grown in the Haskell community over the past year or so. As a user, I was especially turned off by packages whose sole description was essentially "go to Stackage if you want to read the description": https://hackage.haskell.org/package/http-conduit-2.2.0.1 I am a happy user of both caball-install and stack, and ideally I'd like to see the two ecosystems work more closely in the future, but at the very least, I'd like to see them coexist peacefully and respectfully, and not have individual packages "take sides."
So I want to extend my gratitude and thanks to everyone working on any element of our open-source tooling and infrastructure, or even lending a voice to give insight into how to improve it.
In that vein, is there a place to file bugs against HaskellWiki? Or is that one of the areas in need of a volunteer? My own personal itch I'd like to scratch is the lack of diffs on the wiki: https://mail.haskell.org/pipermail/haskell-cafe/2016-April/123701.html Many thanks to the Haskell Committee, to FP Complete, and to all of the volunteers who work on Haskell! --Patrick
