I plan to usurp plugins, speak now or forever hold your peace.

Jeremy Shaw-3
Hello all,

Don Stewart seems to have abandon plugins and has not (as far as I know) responded to any recent inquiries about it. It needs a few patches to build under GHC 7.0 and 7.4.

Since there has been no response for several months, I intend to usurp the project and upload a new version to hackage in a few days, unless I hear any strong objections.

My repository lives here at the moment:


I will likely migrate it to patch-tag. However, patch-tag only supports darcs 2 format, and plugins is darcs 1 format. There is no way to share patches between darcs 1 and darcs 2 repos -- so I am not going to make the change quite yet.

Been on the road - by all means take it, and improve it!

BTW plugins was originally converted from CVS - there may be some oddities in the history.
