So my question is (probably once again): Why can >100.000 projects live with SF and not the Haskell community? Although CVS is not my favourite version control system, I'd happily use it if I get the rest of SF for free then.
For Hackage, we probably need to think more by analogy with CTAN for TeX, and CPAN for perl, rather than SourceForge. These provide easily-accessed repositories of libraries in the relevant language. SourceForge is much more about applications than libraries in my view, and hence is language agnostic. (Although I imagine it may also currently be the nearest equivalent to CPAN for finding C language libraries.) Regards, Malcolm
