absolutely, this has occurred to me too. There should be a stanard Cabal README file, and Don's mkcabal tool could drop it in the tree.
This occurred to me too. My current plan for mkcabal is that it creates:
foo.cabal Setup.lhs README
Just a small point, but I'd expect README to be very specific to each project, whereas I'd expect to find the three "runhaskell Setup.hs" commands in INSTALL (similar to the generic ./configure;make;make install file you find with C programs.
