Add a skeleton libraries directory
Adding files from libraries that aren't in the other packages sub-repos. I haven't bothered to try to keep history for these files, for history go back to the CVS repo.

+ <title>How to contribute</title>
+
+ <para>This project is driven by the Haskell community, so
+ contributions of all kinds are welcome. The first step is to join
+ the <ulink
+ url="http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/libraries">Haskell
+ libraries mailing list</ulink>, and maybe <ulink
+ url="http://www.haskell.org/pipermail/libraries/">browse the list
+ archives</ulink>. Some of the ways you can contribute are:</para>
+
+ <itemizedlist>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>By donating code: for libraries which don't yet have a
+ reference implementation, code is always welcome. Code that
+ conforms to the design guidelines (which aren't very strict,
+ see <xref linkend="library-design"/>) and comes with documentation
+ (<xref linkend="documentation"/>) and a test suite (<xref
+ linkend="testing"/>) is better, but these aren't essential. As
+ a library progresses through the stability scale (<xref
+ linkend="stability"/>) these things become more important, but
+ for an experimental library we're not going to worry too much
+ about this stuff.</para>
+
+ <para>See section <xref
+ linkend="contributing-reference-libraries"/> for details on
+ contributing new library code.</para>
+ </listitem>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>By porting code for an existing library to a new
+ compiler or architecture. A library is classed as portable if
+ it should be available regardless of which compiler/platform
+ combination you're using; however, many libraries are
+ non-portable for one reason or another (see <xref
+ linkend="portability"/>), and broadening the scope of these
+ libraries is always welcome.</para>
+ </listitem>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>Become a library maintainer: if you have a particular
+ interest in and/or knowledge about a certain library, and have
+ the time to spare, and the library in question doesn't already
+ have a maintainer, then you may be a suitable maintainer for
+ the library. The responsibilities of library maintainers are
+ given in <xref linkend="maintainership"/>. </para>
+ </listitem>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>Participating in the design process for new libraries,
+ and suggesting improvements to existing libraries. Everyone
+ on the <ulink
+ url="http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/libraries">Haskell
+ libraries mailing list</ulink> is invited to
+ participate in the design process, so get involved!</para>

+ <title>A possible extension</title>
+
+ <para>The use of qualified imports has become more verbose: for
+ instance</para>
+

+ import qualified XmlParse
+ ... XmlParse.element f ...
+</programlisting>
+
+ <para>becomes</para>
+
+<programlisting>
+ import qualified Text.Xml.Parse
+ ... Text.Xml.Parse.element f ...
+</programlisting>
+
+ <para>It is usually more convenient to make use of Haskell's
+ <literal>as</literal> keyword to shorten qualified identifiers:</para>
+
+<programlisting>
+ import qualified Text.Xml.Parse as Parse
+ ... Parse.element f ...
+</programlisting>
+
+ <para>A possible extension to the proposal is to make this use
+ of <literal>as</literal> implicit, unless overridden by the
+ programmer with her own <literal>as</literal> clause. The
+ implicit <literal>as</literal> clause always uses the final
+ subdivision of the module name. So for instance, either the
+ fully-qualified or abbreviated-qualified names</para>
+
+<programlisting>
+ Text.Xml.Parse.element
+ Parse.element
+</programlisting>
+
+ <para>would be accepted and have the same referent, but a
+ partial qualification like</para>
+
+<programlisting>
+ Xml.Parse.element
+</programlisting>
+
+ <para>would not be accepted.</para>
+ </sect2>
+
+ <sect2>
+ <title>Renaming subtrees</title>
+
+ <para>Various proposals have been made to allow you to rename a
+ whole subtree. This may occasionally be convenient: for example
+ suppose there are several libraries under
+ <literal>Org.Com.Microsoft</literal> that I need to import, it
+ would be easier to rename this subtree to just
+ <literal>Microsoft</literal> for use in future import
+ declarations. For example:</para>
+
+<programlisting>
+ import Org.Com.Microsoft.* as Microsoft.*
+ import Microsoft.Foo
+ import Microsoft.Bar
+ ...
+</programlisting>
+
+ <para>The exact syntax of the renaming declaration is up for
+ debate (as is whether we need it at all), please send
+ suggestions to <email>libraries@haskell.org</email>.</para>

+ <term>User</term>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>The <literal>User</literal> hierarchy is reserved for

+ which is formed from his/her email address as follows:
+ replace any <quote><literal>.</literal></quote>s in the
+ username (before the <literal>@</literal>) with
+ <quote><literal>_</literal></quote>, replace the
+ <quote><literal>@</literal></quote> by a
+ <quote><literal>.</literal></quote>, reverse the order of
+ the components, capitalise the first letter of each
+ component, and prepend
+ <quote><literal>User.</literal></quote>. For example,

+ <literal>User.Com.Microsoft.Simonmar</literal>.</para>
+ </listitem>
+ </varlistentry>
+
+ <varlistentry>
+ <term>Organisation</term>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>The <literal>Org</literal> hierarchy is reserved for

+ a unique space in the hierarchy formed by reversing the
+ components of the domain, capitalising the first character
+ of each component, and prepending <literal>Org.</literal>.
+ <emphasis>ToDo: the Org name isn't great, especially when
+ the domain name also ends with Org (eg. Org.Org.Haskell?).
+ Contrib has also been suggested.</emphasis></para>
+ </listitem>
+ </varlistentry>
+
+ <varlistentry>
+ <term>Local</term>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>The <literal>Local</literal> hierarchy is reserved for

+ <term>Unallocated</term>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>Any node which doesn't belong to any of the above
+ categories is currently unallocated, and is available for
+ use by Haskell programs.</para>
+ </listitem>
+ </varlistentry>
+ </variablelist>
+
+ <para>A node in the hierarchy may be both a specific library and a
+ parent node for a number of child nodes. For example,
+ <literal>Foreign</literal> is a library, and so is
+ <literal>Foreign.Ptr</literal>.</para>

+ <sect2 id="hierarchy-design-guidelines">
+ <title>Hierarchy design guidelines</title>
+
+ <para>Apart from the <literal>User</literal>,
+ <literal>Local</literal> and <literal>Org</literal> top-level
+ categories, the rest of the hierarchy is organised with a single
+ principle in mind:</para>
+
+ <blockquote>
+ <para>Modules are grouped by
+ <emphasis>functionality</emphasis>, since this is the single
+ property that is most helpful for a user of the library - we
+ want users to be able to find out where to obtain
+ functionality easily, and to easily find all the modules that
+ provide relevant functionality.</para>
+
+ <para>So, if two modules provide similar functionality, or
+ alternative interfaces to the same functionality, then they
+ should be children of the same node in the hierarchy. Modules
+ should not be grouped by standards compliance, portability,
+ stability, or any other property.</para>
+ </blockquote>
+
+ <para>It should be noted that this is a guideline rather than a
+ rule: sometimes it just isn't the right thing. For example, the
+ <literal>DotNet</literal> top-level name contains a mirror of
+ the Microsoft .NET base class library; if we had gone purely by
+ functionality then these libraries would have to be scattered
+ around the hierarchy, resulting in a situation where it would
+ probably be <emphasis>harder</emphasis> for a programmer to find
+ the functionality he or she is interested in.</para>
+
+ <para>There are some other considerations when choosing where to
+ place libraries. Where possible, choose a layout that finds a
+ good compromise between depth of nesting and logical grouping of
+ functionality; for example, although the <literal>Text</literal>
+ hierarchy could logically be placed as a child of
+ <literal>FileFormat</literal>, we choose not to because
+ <literal>Text</literal> is ubiquitous and we don't want to have
+ to type the extra component all the time.</para>
+
+ <para>Also consider consistency: if a particular sub-hierarchy
+ provides similar functionality to another sub-hierarchy in the
+ tree, then preferably the structure of the two subtrees should
+ also be similar. For example: under
+ <literal>Language.Haskell</literal> we have children
+ <literal>Syntax</literal>, <literal>Lexer</literal>,
+ <literal>Parser</literal> etc., so under
+ <literal>Language.C</literal> we should have a similar
+ structure.</para>

+ <para>Following some discussion on the mailing list related to

+ least offensive to all involved seems to be the
+ following:</para>
+
+ <para>We wish to accommodate source code from different
+ contributors, and with different licenses. However, a library
+ of modules where each module is released under a different
+ license, and where the dependencies between modules aren't
+ clear, isn't workable (it's too hard for a user of the library
+ to tell whether they're violating the terms of the each license
+ or not).</para>
+
+ <para>So the solution is as follows: code under different
+ licenses will be clearly separate in the repository (i.e. in
+ separate subdirectories), and compilers are expected to present
+ packages of modules where all modules in a package fall under
+ the same license, and where the dependencies between packages
+ are clear.</para>
+
+ <para>It was decided that certain essential functionality should
+ be available under a BSD style license. Hence, the BSD part of
+ the repository will contain implementations of at least the
+ following modules: <literal>Prelude</literal>,
+ <literal>Foreign</literal>, <emphasis>ToDo: what
+ else?</emphasis>.</para>
+
+ <para>There is one further requirement: reference libraries must
+ be available under a license approved by the Open Source
