Personally I think that the key innovation on Hackage would be a user feedback system, like the user reviews on Amazon. Users can: - give a mark out of 10 for a package - write a review (perhaps short): eg "a real struggle to build on Solaris" or "worked like a charm" The marks are averaged and displayed, so other users can pick ones with good reviews. Well-engineered packages would stand out. Simon
