[ghc-steering-committee] GHC Steering Committee Status

[Simon Peyton Jones]

Thanks for the update, Joachim

|  ## Waiting for Shepherd action

Arnaud, Cale, Iavor, Eric, we promise proposal authors a recommendation within a month [1] and hence a recommendation within a week or so.

I think that our Chief Nudger (Tom) will have been sending you weekly reminders about this.  Tom have you been doing this?

Could you possibly get on this?  We are all busy, I know.

Thanks

Simon

|  ## Waiting for committee decision

|        their opinion, but Simon rightfully asked for more.
|  
|  #392: Clarify modifiers design principle (Shepherd: Alejandro)
|        One comment only so far, please add more.
