Hi Isaac,
As Etch is released I want to upload the modular Hugs packages from experimental to unstable and do some work on those packages again.
Usually I keep track of my Debian packaging in my personal subversion archive [1]. I want to put the work on hugs in a version control system as well. Do you have a VCS in which you keep the Debian packaging work of hugs? If not it might by reasonable to create a subversion(?) archive on Alioth for Hugs and other Haskell packages.
I would like to hear you opinion on this.
I'm partial to Mercurial for Debian work, unless upstream is already using some other VCS. I wrote hg-buildpackage for this purpose, and it works out well. See http://hg.debian.org for what people are using it for so far. (That's a very new service so there's not too much there just yet)
Hi John,
I have seen your latest serie of blog entries on mecurial. You seem to switch from VCS often ;-)
I haven't had the change to look a mecurial myself, but I will try to do that this week, and decide which VCS to use after that.
Anyway I am thinking about putting hugs (and my own packages) in a VCS under the pkg-haskell group on alioth as it seems to be the right group for it.
Greetings Arjan
