Dear hackage admins, [CC: libraries@haskell.org]

Another week has passed without action from either package maintainer or hackage admins.

Am I following this protocol correctly?

http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/Taking_over_a_package

If I am lacking, let me know where, otherwise please do your part.

Sincerly, Andreas

Dear Lennart,

since we want to release Agda-2.3.4 soon to work with ghc-7.8, we need a version of geniplate that works with new template haskell. All that is required is an update of version bounds in the cabal file (attached).

Since you have not responded to our request, I am following procedure

http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/Taking_over_a_package

to be able to upload an updated version of geniplate.

Dear Hackage admins,

here is proof of my public request for the update of geniplate:

http://osdir.com/ml/libraries@haskell.org/2014-04/msg00191.html

Please give me rights to upload a new version or do the dependency bumps yourself (new cabal file attached).

Cheers, AndreasAbel (hackage account id)

Dear Carter, thanks for taking care of this. I have no desire of becoming maintainer of geniplate. The only changes to geniplate required are version bumps. The new cabal file has been attached to several of my message, and also in the one publicly linked (far) below, but voila, here is it again. It also puts some constraints on mtl to avoid using the broken 2.1. Cheers, Andreas P.S.: Sorry for the slow response, I have been moving and had problems sending email.

Since this has apparently been blocking agda release for over a month, i've taken action. Note that because Lennart doesnt have a publicly available repository for geniplate, 0.6.0.4 is just a bumped version of 0.6.0.3, This does raise the question of what the default hackage admin/trustee policy for libraries that need a fix like this should be, where the maintainer is active in the community but is hard to reach for a month or so. (and whether any particular default policy should be "opt in" vs "opt out".) anyways, ship the new agda goodness please :) On Sat, May 3, 2014 at 1:27 PM, Carter Schonwald

ok, cool! NB: i will try to email lennart one more time after the "block leave" on his auto reply is over (at EdwardK's suggestion), so may 6th, and if that doesn't get a reply in a day or so, i've the thumbs up from 2+ core libraries committee members to push the fix myself
