I am a Haskell programmer who got to use OPAM when installing Coq (HoTT version) recently. It was surprisingly nice.

Also, you can pick which version of the compiler to run, and have it manage switching everything.

It seemed like it was years ahead of cabal, but that might just be because I only used it a little, I don't know. But there are some things to learn from OPAM.

Do you have a blog post like this, or something I could post the the Haskell subreddit?

We're planning a post after the ICFP rush next week dies down, but there's a rather specific one on the new pinning workflow in OPAM 1.2 here:

http://opam.ocaml.org/blog/opam-1-2-pin/

(How to pin a development is central to the day-to-day development workflow of OCaml/OPAM users and quite annoying to change after-the-fact, so we're eager for feedback on this iteration before we bake it into the 1.2.0 release).

The OPAM blog is only about 2 weeks old, so there'll are quite a few more posts coming up as our developers discover there's quite a lot to write about :)

I'm quite excited.
