[ghc-steering-committee] Please review #452: Articulate principles for GHC evolution; Shepherd: Simon PJ

[Simon Peyton Jones]

Dear Steering Committee

I'd like to propose that we accept Proposal #452: Articulate principles for
GHC evolution

   - Discussion: https://github.com/ghc-proposals/ghc-proposals/pull/452
   - Proposal:
   https://github.com/goldfirere/ghc-proposals/blob/principles/principles.rst

Remember, we are not debating the principles themselves, all of which are
embodied in earlier proposals.  Rather we are discussing

   - the usefulness of having  a place where we articulate the principles,
   and
   - a process for updating them over time, namely by PRs against this
   proposal

The idea is that the latest incarnation of the proposal is always the
current set of agreed principles.

Please respond by Friday 17 Dec. Because it seems uncontroversial, I'll
take silence as assent, unless a big discussion arises.

Thanks

Simon
