We've done it!
http://hackage.haskell.org/cgi-bin/hackage-scripts/stats
274 users have uploaded 3161 versions of 1000 packages.
Thanks everyone who has written a library or tool or app and released
it, for making hackage and cabal a success!
This has gone further, perhaps more than anything els

To those reading, the wikipedia article is here,

It looked like an archaic view of Haskell based on reading wikipedia,
