Yes, that makes a lot of sense.

Then we have to decide where to put the HEAD branch for these packages.

Non-core package should probable migrate over time to code.haskell.org
but I'm less convinced about moving core packages like Cabal and
bytestring.

Don, what do you think? How about we keep bytestring on darcs.h.o and
only move binary etc to code.h.o.
