Hi all,

Is there a way to list all the deprecated packages on hackage?

For instance I found this:

   http://hackage.haskell.org/cgi-bin/hackage-scripts/package/control-timeout-0.1.2

via a google search but its not listed on the main hackage packages
page. However, there are other packages which are marked DEPRECATED
in their description strings.

Finally, if a package is deprecated it might be usefult to have
a reason as well so the hackage entry might say:

   Deprecated : true (replaced by package XXX)

or

   Deprecated : true (needs maintainer)

Cheers,
Erik
