Subject: Cabal at BayHac 2017
Message-ID: <e57abe1de15eb6ee26ec92c11744ec55.squirrel@reseller4.hrwebservices.net>

Hello,

I am considering volunteering at BayHac to help people hack on Cabal,
though I don't know enough of the codebase to do it myself.  Is anyone
else interested in helping?  BayHac is April 7th through 9th in San
Francisco.  Here is the webpage: https://wiki.haskell.org/BayHac2017 . 
Let me know, and then I'll ask to have Cabal added to the list of
projects.  Thanks.

-Kristen

Hi *,

Just a heads-up that the 2.0 release branch for Cabal/cabal-install
has been created. If everything goes as planned, I'll tag the releases
next week, so please hurry up if you want your patches to be included
in this version.

List of issues I want to see resolved before the release:

https://github.com/haskell/cabal/milestone/39

List of tickets postponed until 2.0.1:

https://github.com/haskell/cabal/milestone/45

Cheers,
Mikhail

I'm sure that active contributors who can't attend in person will be
willing to help remotely via IRC (though there's the time zone issue).
Otherwise you can limit the scope of BayHac 2017 Cabal hacking to just
the solver.

Thanks for the suggestions, Mikhail.  I limited the scope to the
dependency solver for now:
https://wiki.haskell.org/BayHac2017/Cabal_dependency_solver .  I also
started a page for potential projects on the Cabal wiki:
https://github.com/haskell/cabal/wiki/BayHac-2017
