Yet another cool thing to get onto the front hackage page on the new server. Though obviously we'd have to make all the tags clickable :-) So much to do... Duncan

Yep. Do you have a goal for happs/hackage? Release during Utrecht hackathon?

My current plan is to release Cabal-1.6.0.2 and cabal-install-0.6.2 and then get on with the platform release, but that will involve at least having a new server running to collect build reports. Running that for a while should give us some feedback. I think it's a reasonable target to try and get it running properly at the next Utrecht hackathon. However to switch over we need not just feature parity but some way to deal with the other services running on hackage.haskell.org. Duncan
