Currently we do not have an independent IRC channel. Some members may be found on #fedora-devel or #haskell on Freenode.


Tasks

  • Complete and submit the current revised draft packaging guidelines for haddock documentation handling, etc
  • Submit various commonly used libraries for Package Review
  • srpm packages for DrIFT, X11, c2hs, cpphs, fps, hs-plugins, hscolour, hsh, hslogger, missingh, vty, wxhaskell, xmobar, xmonad at unsubmitted srpm packages are some good starting candidates
  • update Bryan's cabal-rpm to generate .spec that follow our Packaging Guidelines
  • bootstrap ghc on ppc64 (bug 239713 ) and ia64
  • build ghc for EPEL

Comments

I'm tinkering with cabal-rpm to make sure it can create *good* Fedora packages for most cabal files. I'm using zlib as a test spec in the review process to get a feel for the little nuances that cabal-rpm has to work out. - YaakovNemoy

I've drafted up a feature request - Yaakov Nemoy
