I’d definitely suggest that you put them in our darcs repository space, so that they appear on http://pkg-haskell.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/pet.cgi and that they benefit from possible mass-changes. I guess now that even ghc is group maintained, my reluctance to put applications under group maintenance is kind of obsolete, so if you prefer, you can put the group in the maintainer field. Of course, there is still a moral obligation by the initial uploader to care especially for these packages, and feel addressed when a bug is filed. Do you have a blog? If so, why don’t you blog about putting yesod in Debian. It certainly is something we can show off with a bit. (Although I’m curious whether we are actually affected by http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/5289 (fixed upstream for 7.4, which will be released in due time) and http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/5386 (actually http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/5435, currently not fixed).)
