Hi all,

I find cabal 2.0.0.0 brings new change both in downloading package list and
the hackage mirror.

1) 00-index.tar.gz has be replaced by 01-index.tar.gz
2) If timestamp.json exists and it is new enough, 01-index.tar.gz won't
download, even though I don't have the latest copy of 01-index.tar.gz.

So my questions are

1) What else has been changed to hackage.haskell.org mirror?
I found four more files:
mirrors.json
root.json
snapshot.json
timestamp.json
2) Is it a feature or a bug?


Yours,
Yi
