The latter is exactly what I do and how 99% of the information about tools and libraries were collected. The main page of haskell.org asks for information about projects, compilers, papers, classes, or anything else but we hardly receive any. This is why I am rather wary about putting much effort into any automatic submission and updating scheme (maybe I should put a simple form there which just forwards any information to John and me via email? ;-). And if you want to know if a library is still supported/further developed, then just click on the link and look at the web page for the library. If it talks about Haskell 1.2 and plans for 1995 you know what (not) to expect. Unfortunately many libraries and tools do not even have proper web pages to link to from haskell.org (Michal Weber, are you listening? ;-). Simon, can you tell me how I shall link to hslibs, especially each individual library? Obviously a user would also like to download a single library. Are the URLs stable? I do not want to sound too negative. I am always happy about suggestions for improving haskell.org (especially if they do not imply too much work ;-). And I completely agree that supported libraries should somehow be more visible. I didn't update haskell.org for a few month because I had to finish my thesis, move to York and start a new project here. But I will update the pages with all the stuff that accumulated in the meantime very soon. Cheers, Olaf -- OLAF CHITIL, Dept. of Computer Science, University of York, York YO10 5DD, UK.
