Open up the issues tracker on ghc-proposals

[Joachim Breitner]

Hi,

the distiction between an issue and a pull request is a rather thin
one, and the Github API actually allows you to upgrade an issue to a
pull request…

So no need to be picky about the precise form: If someone has something
interesting to say in an issue without yet having some text to attach
to it, by all means go for it!

Cheers,
Joachim

The author can specify that a proposal is a "pre-proposal", with the goal of fleshing it out before committee submission. If it becomes necessary, we can furnish a tag to label these, but I'm honestly not sure we'll need to.

I'd like to propose that we open up the GitHub issues tracker for ghc-proposals to serve as a place to discuss pre-proposal ideas. Once those discussions converge on one or a few specific plans, someone can write a proper proposal.
