Hi, Duncan -

The subject says it all. I'd like to contribute some patches to bytestring, but darcs is a big wall at this point, and the package has no bug tracker. I'd like to move it under http://github.com/haskell, a place that has served several of our core packages well.

I know you're fond of darcs, but it's well established by experience that we'll get many more contributions (both patches and problem reports) on github.

+1 here.

For containers, this was a good step -- we got several contributions since moving to github. I believe many people are more familiar with github than darcs.

Isn't this an apples vs oranges comparison though? ;-)

Cheers, Milan
