I am around to fix any issues with goatee* and can proxy-maint
officially if that will help.  It should require little work at the
moment, since I'm porting to Qt and goatee-gtk isn't getting new
features.

I do get the burden of maintaining two repos for Haskell though, and I
have always had a smoother experience using ::haskell than the main
tree, so I am fine with this move and appreciate the inclusion in the
main tree in the first place.

dev-games/goatee can be included in the mask too.

Regards,
Bryan
