Okay. I understand the background jhc and Cabal.

By the way, which style fits jhc in future?

1. Jhc includes all YAML files supported. (= current jhc's style)
2. Split jhc repo and YAML files repo. And YAML file repo welcomes
user's pull request.
    (on github? or darcs?)
3. Jhc has only YAML files for base packages. New web service provides
YAML file.
    The sources are gotten from Hackage DB. New web service is wrapper
for Hackage DB.

If we choose 2 or 3 style, I think YAML file format needs have
build-depend section.
I want to aim at jhc/Ajhc should be.

Thank's for your time,
