GHC Libraries

Hi All,

These packages are unmaintained:

Win32 	 Volunteer needed
xhtml 	 Volunteer needed

I think it would be a good idea to change the .cabal file for them and
set the maintainer field to be either 'Unmaintained
<cvs-ghc at haskell.org>' or 'Volunteer Needed <cvs-ghc at haskell.org>'.
The xhtml library is also apparently still maintained as a darcs repo
with a git mirror... ect. Why don't we just have a single git repo as
the primary if we are now the ones maintaining it?

Also, the 'filepath' package's .cabal file says Neil Mitchell is the
maintainer but it seems GHC HQ is the maintainer. Should I change the
.cabal file here as well?

Finally, many of the pure git repos (ones that aren't a mirror of a
darcs repo) still contain a .darcs-boring file. I assume this is just
left over trash so would like to remove. Is this OK?

Cheers,
David
