<p class="MsoNormal">It looks like the motivation behind this proposal boils down to the convenience of writing instances which seems a good thing. The minor problem I see is the proposed name "Code" as it looks a little bit too abstract for Typed Template
Haskell expressions. Nevertheless, I recommend to accept the proposal as it is. Silence is understood as agreement.<o:p></o:p></p>
