Thanks for forwarding it, Stefan.

Personally I think that the HTMLised sources in the documentation plus
"apt-get source" is enough.

I also don't see why it makes sense to do this for the libraries that
happen to need to come in the ghc6 packages, but not all the other
libraries; e.g. I think the source for mtl is at least as likely to be
wanted as the source for process. But putting a copy of the whole source
package in one of the binary packages feels wrong to me.

Any other opinions?


Thanks
Ian
