For Hackage, we probably need to think more by analogy with CTAN
for TeX, and CPAN for perl, rather than SourceForge.  These provide
easily-accessed repositories of libraries in the relevant language.
SourceForge is much more about applications than libraries in my view,
and hence is language agnostic.  (Although I imagine it may also
currently be the nearest equivalent to CPAN for finding C language
libraries.)
