It’s on
darcs.debian.org:/darcs/pkg-haskell/policy

I’ve just noticed that Raul actually modified the policy in the Darcs
repo a bit, but
http://pkg-haskell.alioth.debian.org/haskell-policy/ch-libs-bin.html#s-libs-bin-names
did not get updated despite an appropriate post-push-hook, as
debiandoc-sgml is not installed on alioth any more. I’ll nudge the
alioth admins about that.

Yes, you should. I usually keep an eye on the commit messages, but might
miss such a change, especially if it is not done as a commit of their
own.

Yes, as long as they are not also in testing.

You specify
        Copyright: 2012-2014 Michael Snoyman
in debian/changelog, despite the LICENSE file saying 
        Copyright (c)2011, Michael Snoyman
Where did you get your dates from?

I changed that and uploaded the package.

Greetings,
Joachim
