User accounts

+

Most of the functions of the HackageDB web interface +(including browsing and checking packages) are available to all. +However, uploading packages requires a HackageDB username and password. +Your username will be your name in CamelCase (e.g. "JosephBloggs"). + +

Getting a Hackage username

+ +

Note: This is only for releasing packages. +For hosting a Haskell source repository, you could try +community.haskell.org. + +

Some people +have already been added, initially with the same password as they used for the +GHC Wiki in January 2007 +(but with a different username, see above). +If you need a username, please send mail to +ross@soi.city.ac.uk. +Any real person with a Cabal package to upload is welcome. + +

Change password

+

If you have a HackageDB username, +you can use this form to change the associated password. + +

+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +

Current password:
New password:

Passwords are stored encrypted, so if you forget yours we can't recover it, +but will need to assign a new one. Just ask. + }
