Hi, guys,

It looks old (and even ancient) versions of many packages gets uploaded to hackage over and over again in ever increasing amounts. The username of uploader for vast majority of these uploads is HerbertValerioRiedel.

BTW, where do you see these changes? I thought we had fixed the "latest uploads" page and rss to only show real uploads, and not edits to metadata. Not that we want to hide the edits, they need to be visible, but we shouldn't be confusing them with new package uploads in the UI anywhere. Duncan
