    11Here is a list of suggestions from Isaac about what needs to happen to get Hackage off the ground.  Above all, though, you hackers should make it your own!

     3Isaac proposes two high-level goals.  See details below: 
    44 1. "Finish" Hackage, version 1.0 
    5  2. Make a proposal to Isaac about the server needs for Hackage.  We cannot give too many people root or login accounts on haskell.galois.com.  There is too much mission-critical software there, but at the same time, we'd like to support many smaller projects. 
     5 2. Make a proposal to Isaac / Galois about the server needs for Hackage.  We cannot give too many people root or login accounts on haskell.galois.com; There is too much mission-critical software there. At the same time, we'd like to support many smaller projects; every few days someone asks for someplace to host their darcs repo! 
    66   1. should the Hackage system be both a package database AND a (darcs?) hosting site for Haskell-related projects? 
    77   1. who should have root access to this machine (might inform later questions)

    5555 1. front-end for viewing, searching, querying the package repository.  Lemmih has done good work here, check with him!  His front end does work with the new repository layout!
