Hi,
There are some categories on Hackage that have become so large that it
is hard to find something, i.e. Data(414 packages) and Graphics (191).
Thats why I suggest to use subcategories separated from the category
with a dot. To show that this makes sense I made subcategories for
graphics libraries at the end of this email.
Whatever happens to hackage2 this would be an immediate improvement.
How
------
I would volunteer for the manual categorization and let the community
look over it.
I could upload the changes with a script but the version number has to
increase even if only the category has changed. I also don't want to be
responsible for a massive spike in the upload statistics.
Shouldn't the cabal file be excluded from the versioning policy? => It
is allowed to upload a library with the same version number if only the
cabal file has changed. One should write a notifiaction mail to all
owners to reply if they don't agree. Then after a week executing the
script that applies the changes.
