It's not open source + it doesn't do what we need -> Bang!  \also they
host stuff for you, and only have limited room for free usage.  Relying
on a company is not the way to go here (think of BitKeeper). 

TinyMCE [1], however, seems like a good start.  It is open source, seems
relatively mature, supports plugins, and runs completely in JavaScript,
thus should be independent from the server technology.  

I actually had something in mind like WYMeditor [2], but it seems not
very mature, yet.

So if I download all 4 HTML libs to try to figure out which one fits  
best, I mod all four up?  Seems wrong to me.

Yes please! Please contribute the feature.

Grab the hackage code from:

http://darcs.haskell.org/hackage-scripts/

Send patches to the cabal-devel mailing list. Everyone is most welcome
to subscribe too.

Another thing I'd like to see coming out of this discussion is some
feature requests filed in the hackage trac with a summary of some of our
conclusions:

http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/

it can be made easy and automatic by just publishing "number of
