this part of the proposal</a>, which I had previously missed entirely. It describes how to use SrcSpan
<b>in the parser</b> to decide if two lexemes are juxtaposed with no white space whatsoever. I think that’s a pretty interesting thought. For example, we might be able to use it to parse qualified names, rather than have complicated rules in the lexer.
But meanwhile, it’s a decent response to Note 5.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

The examples are good, but I know from experience it's easy to overlook things if we don't consider what the precise grammar is, both at the lexical and context-free levels. So I wouldn't feel comfortable voting on a proposal where the grammar isn't completely

You can clearly say `(.x)`. I would guess that you can’t omit the parens. Again, should ultimately be nailed down but doesn’t really affect our decision making.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto">I’m sorry to have been dragging my feet on the records proposal. First there was half term holiday, and then the ICFP deadline, so I’ve been out of action for several weeks.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto">It’s pretty clear that we are not going to achieve 100% consensus, so the right thing to do is to vote, using the single-transferrable-vote scheme that Joachim runs. It’s worth
striving for consensus, because the debate can be clarifying (and has been!). But I don’t regard non-consensus as a failure. These things are all judgement calls, and people’s judgement can legitimately differ. Voting lets us nevertheless reach a conclusion.<o:p></o:p></p>
