There's been a bit of discussion on irc, lists and privately about 
about documenting publically the best practice for creating a new
Haskell project -- be that a library or an application.

Some advice is now available here:
    http://haskell.org/haskellwiki/How_to_write_a_Haskell_program

Suggestions include:
    * use darcs
    * use cabal

But we could do with more information on:
    * where to host a haskell project 
    * integration of testsuites
    * anything about Hackage?
    * portability issues?

So have a look at the page and make some suggestions, so it will be
easier for newcomers in the future to create and contribute new
projects, that will be readily accesible, useable and adopted by the
community.
