Here's a proposal: don't have mailing lists maintain libraries.
My suggestion is that every library has a dedicated maintainer
A strong +1 from me. A certain amount of discussion about APIs on mailing lists is appropriate, perhaps especially for Platform packages. But ultimately, a real human maintainer must exist and take charge of the package(s) they own.
If that's the consensus then we need volunteers to maintain: array base containers directory extensible-exceptions haskell2010 haskell98 hpc integer-gmp mtl old-locale old-time pretty process random template-haskell unix (and probably a few more that are not in my GHC tree). Win32 is also not actively maintained at the moment, AFAIK. Thanks Ian
