Makes sense.

I'm working on that.  There should be a real homepage with a wiki for it
soon.  It's already in HCAR, and I think it's on the wiki list of
libraries.  But I'll try to help it along, too.

I couldn't figure out how to add it to hoogle.  Does anyone have a pointer
for that?

True, too.  I didn't want to be too annoying, so I have tried to not do that
too much.  But since you asked, I'll try to step in more.
