[ghc-steering-committee] Stepping down from the committee

[Simon Peyton Jones]

Iavor

I too would like to thank you very much.  You have been a big contributor to Haskell for a long time, and I've really appreciated your input to the GHC steering committee.

Thank you!

Simon

|  I wholeheartedly agree with Joachim here. I was sad to see Iavor's note and
|  contemplating writing a plea to stay on -- but then wanted to respect your
|  decision. Despite the fact, Iavor, that you and I often have been on
|  opposing sides of a debate, it's a pleasure to work with you, and I will
|  miss your voice in this committee.
|  
|  Thanks for all your contributions!
