We're planning to ship GHC 6.4 "very soon", so it would be good if the version of Cabal that comes with GHC 6.4 is more or less a stable release. What things do you still have in the pipeline?
That's fine... I was basically planning to make 1.0 "whatever gets released with the next fptools/libraries" Big things on my list (I'll break them up into "stuff I want to do" and "stuff I want someone else to do" :) ). My longer-term plan is that if I finish the "stuff I want to do" then I can start hacking on Hackage. * Stuff I want to do: ** Documentation ** getting the hooks / configure interface done, including "./setup test" which uses the same interface ** more testing of preprocessors, haven't found a good test case yet actually * Consensus decisions to make: ** names of package files ** which fields in which files (hopefully only one file) * Stuff i want someone else to do ** Distribution.Simple interface for all implementations, if possible (nhc is probably pretty behind the others at this point, but it shouldn't be much different from ghc). ** HC-pkg interface for all implementations, if possible ** maybe "uninstall" ** some tweaking to sdist and bdist, including using libraries for tarring them up, instead of calling 'system "tar"' peace, isaac
