[ghc-steering-committee] What should we start with?

[Simon Peyton Jones]

I propose that we adopt the overloaded record field proposal too.  I've just re-read it -- it's nice.

| Hi,
| 
| good to have a mailing list, thanks to whoever set it up.
| 
| I would like to see us warming up by handling a first proposal before all
| of us forget that we are on this committee. Which should we get started
| on?
| 
| There are two that have the “Pending review” label: Levity Polymorphism
| and OverloadedRecordFields

| According to our process documents, this label setting should have
| already triggered our part of the process!
| 
| We could also look for proposals that have not been updated in a while
| (you can sort by that in the issue list) for example
| * Optional tuple parenthesization

| and others.
| I pinged a few random old proposals and asked them to maybe move forward
| (or abandon).

| Greetings,
| Joachim
