I think the main thing that would change in this idea is the haskell-utils package, which I was working on to maintain. I've done a version[0], but maybe it worth to work on a version that already supports this, and apply the changes I've made in this new version.
So, do you think this version should be uploaded to correct those bugs while we decide about what's coming next?
Yes, I think we should discuss these changes more. OTOH, bumping the scripts version in haskell-utils just for the standards version sounds a bit much as well, maybe you should wait for other (minor) fixes.
Actually, this would be a big change in the Haskell package system, so maybe it could be done with the creation of the haskell team, so that we could maintain these packages together. What do you think?
Yes, a packaging team would be useful, but it needs someone to take the lead (e.g. setting up the alioth group, choosing and setting up a VCS etc.)
Don't you want to do this?
I’m hesitant whether I’ll have the time and motivation to keep a group going and motivated :-). And so far, there were not many people that would join and work in such a group. I think that at least some more of these people should be in the group for it to make sense:
