Not a nice idea, in my opinion. I already use darcs for synchronizing data between my work and home computer but I use several repositories for several topics. A topic would be something like a lecture I write exercises for or a conference I write a paper for.

Just put a darcs repo in your ~/public_html/ dir and access it via http://community.haskell.org/~username/ Duncan ___ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe

[Haskell-cafe] Making 'community' server our social network
Hi, I've beeing doing something with darcs that is so great that, although I'm sure a lot of people are already doing the same, I think it would be nice to share with you. I did 'cd ~' and then: darcs initialize darcs add .emacs darcs add .xmonad/xmonad.hs darcs add .inputrc ... etc. So I'm using darcs to keep track of all my configuration files, and now I don't need to care about reinstalling the OS, changing machines from office to home, changing configurations and then realizing it was a mistake etc. Then I thought community.haskell.org could offer a default darcs repositories for all users named after their owners. For instance, if you want to check my personal files you would do: darcs get http://code.haskell.org/MauricioAntunes That would allow us not only to share our configuration, but also share all those small files that are not "professional" enough to became projects for their own, but that are nevertheless interesting since we put our good ideas there: scripts to start our favorite software or do system maintenance; small Haskell utilities to do some cool math or science trick, stress some language feature or download our standard music collection from the web; a list of favorite sites and a related completion script so we can list then in 'dmenu' completion; etc. etc. etc. The next bonus step would be to get a list at all users default repository main page of all other users they have granted write access to some of their projects. Then we would be able to navigate throw linked lists of people with related interests and needs. I think we need no more to get what will be MySpace, Facebook or something else for text-driven people. And then, of course, world domination. Although I don't really imagine any business model around that :) Best, Maurício ___ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
