THis is a great idea. Maybe even some kind of color coding? (Green means active, yellow means not heard from for some time, red means 'plan on doing a lot of work getting it to function with the latest compilers'. Ok, maybe not those colors, but still. Actually, things have gotten a lot better in terms of libraries wrt ghc over the last few years. Many of the interesting 'batteries' are now included. (To misquote the pythonism). For example, you can now get a pretty good system of the ground by installing the latest ghc. Install HOpenGL and have a heck of a lot of fun. FFI stuff is pretty workable as is now ( I use it), but you will need greencard to build HOpenGL and maybe some other stuff you want. THanks all you library maintainers and writers!
