no, I mean a standard way to specify a package name, a description of it, a category, etc.. > But you don't like Cabal's configuration management? What is Cabal's > configuration management, then? the build-depends field mainly, pretty much everything dealing with cabal building a package rather than just describing the _result_ of a successful building. One is constant between build systems and would be generally useful to standardize independently, the other depends on the specific build system/configuration manager used.
