I have two comments at this point: "If not all of the dependencies were build yet, the dependencies are included in the queue, and also the package or module, after them." Minor nit: note that several packages can share a dependency so naively adding a dependency to the queue could cause unnecessary rebuilds. "I'll work on a released version of GHC, to avoid having to rebuild it whenever the git is updated, and to avoid handling with changed on the git tree during my development." I would strongly recommend against this as you might end up with an impossible merge towards the end of the project, putting the whole project in jeopardy. I'd suggest getting patches in early and frequently. By submitting patches (at least for review) early and often you'll benefit from feedback and buy-in from the maintainer(s) and make it easier for him/her/they to merge your work.

You should parallelize yourself instead; while one thread is stuck waiting for GHC or Cabal, the other ones can have fun. ___ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe

Waiting for 67 modules to build in order every time I change my types file is not fun. ___ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe

Hi Johan. Excerpts from Johan Tibell's message of Seg Mar 28 10:58:16 -0300 2011: (...) > If you're a student and like to get paid to work on a Haskell project this > summer I recommend you go find an interesting project [1] and start working > on your application. I plan to apply to the Google Summer of Code, to work on the parallelization of Cabal Install. As stated in some comments, this project may be too small for three months, so I included some other things in my proposal. The first is to work on making GHC parallel while building different modules. The second is to make a tool that I'm creating, hackage-debian, parallel. I intend to hackage-debian before the deadline for project submissions. It's a tool to create a debian repository with as much as possible hackage libraries. I've writed a draft of the proposal at http://www2.dcc.ufmg.br/laboratorios/llp/wiki/doku.php?id=marco_soc2011 . If you have any comments, I'll be glad to receive them. Greetings.

Hi, The Google Summer of Code student application period starts today at 19:00 UTC. If you're a student and like to get paid to work on a Haskell project this summer I recommend you go find an interesting project [1] and start working on your application. You can find more information on the wiki [2]. Cheers, Johan 1. http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/summer-of-code/report/1 2. http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/summer-of-code/wiki/Soc2011 ___ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
