Cabal
About
Cabal is a system for building and packaging Haskell libraries and programs. It defines a common interface for package authors and distributors to easily build their applications in a portable way.
Coordinators
Johan Tibell (via IRC)
Tasks
Bug-closing fixit, where people try to reproduce bugs on the GitHub issue tracker and report those that cannot be reproduced as such. This would be very useful as the number of open issues has gotten a bit out-of-control, making the issue tracker less useful.
This is a good opportunity for the less experienced Haskell folks to get acquainted with the Haskell infrastructure and possibly even dig into the Cabal internals.
HasFix
About
HasFix is an API upgrade tool for Haskell.
Coordinators
Roman Cheplyaka
Tasks
- Create a good user interface. This includes creating a convenient program where a user describes the API changes, and a human-editable format (perhaps YAML-based?) to represent these changes on disk.
- Implement some simple types of API changes
Hakyll
About
Hakyll is a Haskell library for generating static sites, mostly aimed at small-to-medium sites and personal blogs. It is written in a very configurable way and uses an xmonad-like DSL for configuration.
Coordinators
Jasper Van der Jeugt
Tasks
Hakyll should be a very accessible project, even for Haskell beginners. I have quite a few ideas for improvements, and I welcome ideas from other people as well!
