One thing I would regard as nice-to-have and worth mentioning while we
have the review process here: a ChangeLog with (at least) the API
changes to each version documented. When I'm creating a package and I
want to set version bounds correctly, I often find that the lack of a
nice, concise changelog makes this process a lot longer and more tedious
than it need be.
I don't think I'd regard this as essential or even particularly
important, but it's something I'd like to see more widespread in Haskell
packages.
