I want to thank both you and Duncan for your explaination of how the Haskell overlay works. I would love to get your overlay onto overlays.g.o, without disrupting the working practices that you've found successful. Which means we need to take another look at the vision of all overlays being publically readable, because having a non-public overlay seems to be a key part of what you're already doing. I really don't want o.g.o to carry 'secret' overlays. But maybe there's a middle ground that fits with what you need? If the overlay's changelog is included on o.g.o's front-page, and the wiki / GuideXML site is publically readable, but we just disallow anonymous access to the overlay itself (only if requested, this wouldn't be the default setup) ... how would that work for you?
